영문 초록

Gina Apostol s Gun Dealers Daughter shows how memory and language work in the context of American (neo)colonialism and Philippine dictatorship. This paper examines the ways in which memory and language can counter the double bind of U.S. colonialism and Ferdinand Marcos s dictatorship in the Philippine context. In particular, it explores the meaning of forgetting aimed at overcoming the history of colonialism as well as the possibility of healing with the help of remembering. The relationship between the narrator and her alter ego shows how remembering and re-writing history are necessary to address the problems of the postcolonial Philippines. In this regard, this paper also pays attention to the ways in which dysgraphia, silence, pun, and catachresis can be used as counter-discursive strategies to raise the possibility of writing an alternative history as opposed to the hegemonic narrative.
