Feminist Epistemology Explained to a Girl. Woman’s Subject of Knowing in Epistolary Novel of Jagoda Truhelka "In the Empire of a Soul. Letters to My Pupil" (Osijek, 1910)
Slavica Jakobović Fribec
Sažetak
From the perspective of contemporary feminist epistemology (women’s ways of knowing and the politics of feminist criticism), Truhelka’s novel from the beginning of the 20th century is placed in the tradition of the first wave of feminism (in which, a woman, in order to emancipate as a »human« first has to constitute herself as a female citizen). In the paper, it is shown that women, through the process of subjectivity and through the strategies of writing, have constituted themselves as the subjects of knowing, and through the process of education, as the subjects of knowledge. That historical change didn’t happen only through a discourse of women’s writing (as produce of meaning) but also through a discourse of women’s teaching (in the transfer of knowledge) and so it’s happening today in a discourse of women’s knowing as the change in contemporary (epistemological and scientific) paradigm.
