In an innovative mix of history, anthropology, and post-colonial
theory, Vicente L. Rafael examines the role of language in the
religious conversion of the Tagalogs to Catholicism and their
subsequent colonization during the early period (1580-1705) of
Spanish rule in the Philippines. By tracing this history of
communication between Spaniards and Tagalogs, Rafael maps the
conditions that made possible both the emergence of a colonial
regime and resistance to it. Originally published in 1988, this new
paperback edition contains an updated preface that places the book
in theoretical relation to other recent works in cultural studies
and comparative colonialism.
