dc.description.abstractThis master’s report presents an examination of hybridic religious practices, ritual and iconography as depicted in Jessica Hagedorn's Dogeaters and Ana Castillo's So far from God. In particular, it treats the role of religious hybridity--the imbrication of folkloric, indigenous and secular traditions with orthodox Catholicism--as an important source of cultural, political and social resistance within postcolonial Chicana/o and Filipino communities that are still dealing with, or attempting to escape their colonial pasts.en
