内容説明
This first ever ethnography of a remarkable Chinese/Thai minority convincingly argues that Hmong culture cannot be understood in isolation from Chinese culture. It deals with major issues concerning their mixed Southeast Asian/Chinese identity, and covers subjects such as the interpretation of their cultural borrowings as signs of envy or subversion, farming and kinship relations, shamanism and ancestral worship, and, in part three, the legends of the Orphan, who achieves sovereignty through a mystic marriage. It is made clear that agency redefines context, through the power of imagination.
