I. PRELIMINARIES

A. Course Requirements

1. Only students who have passed BLL/FA/COMM 199 may enroll in BLL/FA/COMM 200 can take the
thesis course (BLL/FA/COMM 200).

2. Students have the option to pursue the thesis proposal submitted in BLL/FA/ COMM 199 or to
submit an entirely new proposal.

3. To satisfy the requirements of the thesis course, students may pursue projects that depart from the
traditional thesis (such as investigative reports, or production of a newspaper, magazine, or
newsletter), subject to the approval of the adviser. The adviser sets the specific requirements( e.g. a
theoretical preface to a creative writing thesis) for the non-traditional thesis project.

4. Thesis students may work on a thesis individually, or with a group pending approval of the
Department Chair. For non-production theses, groups will not exceed three (3) members; for
production theses, the number of members will not exceed five (5).

5. The thesis may be written in English or in Filipino.

II. THESIS ADVISING

A. Choosing an Adviser

1. Students choose an adviser from among the regular faculty of the College of Arts and
Communication, based on faculty expertise.

2. Students may choose faculty members from other colleges as advisers, subject to the approval of the
Department Chair.

3. Faculty serving as thesis adviser shall work with a limited number of students to ensure that each
advisee is given adequate time for consultation. A faculty member may serve as adviser to not more
than five(5) theses each semester. In exceptional cases, a faculty may be allowed to serve as adviser
to more than five, but not exceed ten (10) thesis projects.

B. Change of Thesis Adviser

1. A student who wishes to change an adviser for justifiable reasons shall write the Dean through the
Department Chair. Likewise, an adviser may request to be relieved of his/her duties for valid reasons.

ABSTRACT

This study is an analysis of the women characters in the short fiction of Nick Joaquin. It proceeds from the

proposition that the women characters, though they appear emancipated or empowered, are actually dominated by the

patriarchal order. In relation to this, the women characters are subjected to a feminist critique. Using a feminist framework,

this study submits these women characters to a close analysis, in an attempt to show how they are ultimately defined by

patriarchal assumptions.

This study focuses on twenty-two women characters from the fourteen stories of Joaquin which have been

anthologized in Prose and Poems and Tropical Gothic. These women characters are classified into two groups the defiant

and the dominated. The former includes the characters who initially appear to subvert patriarchy, while the latter are the

characters who appear to be subjected to it.

The study shows that all of these characters are dominated by the patriarchal order and that Joaquin, in spite of

appearing to advocate matriarchy through his stories, actually sustains the viewpoints of patriarchy.
