Between Empires: Print Culture in the Philippines (1850-1950)

418 Seiten, Leder-/Kunstleder- oder Prachteinband

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Between Empires sheds light on how print culture was used to promote and build the colonial projects of Spain, the US, and Japan in the Philippines, what their means were and what failures and problems they encountered. This work intentionally overcomes partisanship by presenting three colonial projects and contrasting narratives in one single volume. On the one hand, the volume transcends the traditional scope and practice of colonial history by advocating a comprehensive study of print culture. On the other hand, it goes beyond traditional colonial book history by studying print culture beyond a Western prism. This volume offers those interested in print culture, colonialism, and the Philippines an insight into the effects happening within and emanating from print culture in relation to institutional change, state-building, and colonial control and interactions.
