In stock
This third volume of Francisco Ignacio Alcina's Historia de las islas e indios de Bisayas (1668) turns to Bisayan material culture and belief, covering weaving and looms, ancient religious practices, and spirit lore, including accounts of the so-called "liver eaters." Alcina wrote from the vantage of a missionary who spent 37 years among the Bisayans of Samar and Leyte, capturing a transitional moment when the islands had accepted Spanish presence but were not yet fully colonized. Translated, edited, and annotated by Cantius J. Kobak, O.F.M. and Lucio Gutierrez, O.P., this UST Publishing House edition runs 605 pages.
