Visayan Vignettes: Ethnographic Traces of a Philippine Island


Overview

""To read the book is to appreciate the highly contingent, provisional, oblique, open-ended way in which people try to make ""sense"" of another culture.""—Resil B. Mojares, Philippine Graphic ""This book is an interestingly complex ethnography that approaches the self-critical dialectical ethnography called for two decades ago....It is a welcome contribution to postmodernist theory and to the ethnography of the Visayas.""—Ronald Provencher, Journal of Asian Studies
