Primera línea
July 1990 Today the Portuguese Settlement is one of the official sights of Malacca, a must on every tourist's itinerary.
Descripción de contraportada
When the Portuguese seafarer Afonso de Albuquerque conquered the bustling port of Malacca in 1511, he effectively gained control of the entire South China Sea spice trade. Although their dominance lasted only 130 years, the Portuguese legacy lies at the heart of a burgeoning tourist attraction on the outskirts of the city, in which performers who believe they are the descendants of swashbuckling Portuguese conquerors encapsulate their "history" in a cultural stage show.
Using historical and ethnographic data, Margaret Sarkissian reveals that this music and dance draws on an eclectic array of influences that span the Portuguese diaspora (one song conjures up images of Lucille Ball impersonating Carmen Miranda on "I Love Lucy"). Ironically, she shows, what began as a literate tradition in the 1950s has now become an oral one so deeply rooted in Settlement life that the younger generation, like the tourists, now see it as an unbroken heritage stretching back almost 500 years. A fascinating case of "orientalism in reverse," D'Albuquerque's Children illuminates the creative ways in which one community has adapted to life in a postcolonial world.Detalles

Descripción:
Chicago: University Of Chicago Press, 2000. Paperback. Very Good. 16-11-16. Although Portugal's 130 rule of Melaka was followed by Dutch and then British rule during Malaysia's colonial period, descendants of those Portuguese have managed to preserve a culture and identity for more than 500 years with little contact with Portugal before the modern era. In this book, a noted ethnomusicologist seeks to determine the origins of the music and dance. The results reveal a wide selection of influences that have been melded to form this distinctive culture. 219 pages. For further details, please see the scanned contents page. Weight: 0.5kg Post free within Malaysia The book looks new apart from some light pencil markings on one or two of the pages
