ISBN: 9780822360582 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In Motherless Tongues, Vicente L.

White Love and Other Events in Filipino History
ISBN: 9780822325420 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this wide-ranging cultural and political history of Filipinos and the Philippines, Vicente L. Rafael examines the period from the onset of U.S. colonialism in 1898 to the emergence of a Filipino diaspora in the 1990s.

"White Love and Other Events in Filipino History" is thus a view of nationalism as an unstable production, as Rafael reveals...
