Paperback. Condizione: New. The contributors to Siting Postcoloniality reevaluate the notion of the postcolonial by focusing on the Sinosphere-the region of East and Southeast Asia that has been significantly shaped by relations with China throughout history. Pointing out that the history of imperialism in China and Southeast Asia is longer and more complex than Euro-American imperialism, the contributors complicate the traditional postcolonial binaries of center-periphery, colonizer-colonized, and developed-developing. Among other topics, they examine socialist China's attempts to break with Soviet cultural hegemony; the postcoloniality of Taiwan as it negotiates the legacy of Japanese colonial rule; Southeast Asian and South Asian diasporic experiences of colonialism; and Hong Kong's complex colonial experiences under the British, the Japanese, and mainland China. The contributors show how postcolonial theory's central concepts cannot adequately explain colonialism in the Sinosphere. Challenging fundamental axioms of postcolonial studies, this volume forcefully suggests that postcolonial theory needs to be rethought. Contributors. Pheng Cheah, Dai Jinhua, Caroline S. Hau, Elaine Yee Lin Ho, Wendy Larson, Liao Ping-hui, Lin Pei-yin, Lo Kwai-Cheung, Lui Tai-lok, Pang Laikwan, Lisa Rofel, David Der-wei Wang, Erebus Wong, Robert J. C. Young.…

Condizione: New. Idioma/Language: Español. En las páginas de este libro los semidioses y monstruos no se parecen a los que hemos creado en nuestro imaginario colectivo. No encontrarás héroes con armaduras relucientes ni criaturas terroríficas salidas de un bestiario clásico. Aquí los monstruos respiran, sienten y se mueven por calles y casas de verdad, con rostros que podrían ser los de un vecino, un familiar o los nuestros. Caroline S. Hau desarma la épica tradicional para mostrarnos que lo extraordinario y lo inquietante laten en lo cotidiano, que el heroísmo puede ser frágil y que la monstruosidad rara vez se ve desde fuera. El joven, que actúa con una violencia prematura y que lleva a sus espaldas una historia marcada por la pérdida y el desamparo; Lia, la mujer que regresa a la isla de su infancia para enfrentar viejas ausencias y nuevas sombras; o la trabajadora de Harmony, que convive con fantasmas tan reales como la rutina de la oficina, son solo algunos de los personajes que pueblan este universo. En ellos, lo humano y la fábula se entrelazan hasta volverse indisolubles, revelando así que los monstruos no siempre acechan en la oscuridad. A menudo se esconden entre nosotros, o dentro de nosotros. Caroline S. Hau construye mitologías contemporáneas ? en Filipinas, China o Japón ? que derriban moldes y reescriben, con voz precisa y poderosa, los límites entre la realidad y lo fantástico. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Black and white illustrations, 310pp, index, from the library of Professor Anthony Reid, paperback in very good condition. "Cross-border movements are often discussed as a high-level abstraction, but people cross borders as individuals. Their lives are reshaped by the experience, and in some cases they in turn reshape their own environment. For the ten individuals whose biographies appear in this volume, "travel" and its contingent and uneven processes of translation, circulation, and exchange helped forge patterns of political thought and action, and defined their contribution to the process of nation-making in Southeast Asia. Mariano Ponce, Pham Hong Thai, Hilaire Noulens, Vu Trong Phung, Du Ai, Lin Bin, Ruam Wongphan, James Puthucheary, K. Bali, Connie Bragas-Regalado, and Imam Samudra each "traveled" within and beyond Southeast Asia. The accounts in this book discuss how travel shaped their lives and careers, and explain the transformative effects it had on the intellectual, political, and cultural trajectories of nationalism, communism, Islamism, and other movements in the region. The volume illuminates some of the pathways by which people in this region worked to realize their intellectual, aesthetic and political visions and projects over the last tumultuous century."
