Colonial Phantoms: Belonging And Refusal In The Dominican Americas, From The 19Th Century To The Present (Nation Of Nations, 28) - 9781479850457

Using a blend of historical and literary analysis, Colonial Phantoms reveals how Western discourses have ghosted—miscategorized or erased—the Dominican Republic since the nineteenth century despite its central place in the architecture of the Americas. Through a variety of Dominican cultural texts, from literature to public monuments to musical performance, it illuminates the Dominican quest for legibility and resistance.
