Children of the Post Colony

Filipino Intellectuals and Decolonization, 1946–1972

About this book

Writing against historical forgetting, CharlieSamuya Veric reconstructs the foundationsof Filipino postcolonial thought followingPhilippine independence from the UnitedStates in 1946. On the one hand, henarrates the rise of postcolonial knowledgeafter the formal birth of the nation. On theother, he examines the ideas of the firstgeneration of intellectuals who came ofage after independence—Edith L. Tiempo,Fernando Zobel, Bienvenido L. Lumbera,E. San Juan, Jr., and Jose Maria Sison—whose penetrating insights into literaryformalism, modern art, vernacular tradition,subaltern internationalism, and massrevolution constitute key cultural archives ofpostcolonial knowledge production. Originaland provocative, Children of the Postcolonyilluminates Filipino decolonization andargues for the vitality of its still unrealizeddreamworld.
