Philippine Studies
Author: Priscelina Patajo-Legasto
Publisher: UP Press
ISBN: 9715425917
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 791
Book Description
These essays by Philippine and U.S.-based scholars illustrate the dynamism and complexities of the discursive field of Philippine studies as a critique of vestiges of "universalist" (Western/hegemonic) paradigms; as an affirmation of "traditional" and "emergent" cultural practices; as a site for new readings of "old" texts and "new" popular forms brought into the ambit of serious scholarship; and as a liberative space for new art and literary genres.
