Insular Yet Global: Selected Essays of Fernando Zialcita by Fernando N. Zialcita
In stock
In this collection of essays--written over two decades and compiled and curated at the suggestion of Dr. Jorge Mojarro of the Universityof Santo Tomas--the author delves into how the Philippines, despite its geographical isolation, has continuously engaged with and adapted to external influences, creating a unique culutal milieu. His nuanced approach argues against the notion that embracing globalization means discarding local heritage, or the tendency to view all forms of Hispanic influence as something to be rejected in favor of a "pure" Filipino culture.
Insular Yet Globa: Selected Essays by Fernando Zialcita encapsulates the dual nature of the Philippines' cultural experience: insular due to its geography, yet global due to its history.
