Notes
- Abstract:
- This thesis examines the relationship between print culture and American imperial endeavors
in the Philippines. Specifically, it investigates articles in daily newspapers – the saliency of the
American newspaper created a way for the public to encounter the Filipino native through
representations formed by colonial actors and observers. The thesis’ individual chapters
explore three distinct contexts in which discourses of an emerging imperial-racial framework
were translated into the narratives of reportage. The degree to which the medium of the
newspaper can replicate ideas, sounds and images created a shared experience and produced
widespread stereotypes. Ultimately, these accounts surveyed shaped American expectations
and attitudes about the Filipino identity.
