Rosalia, René V.

Tambu de legale en kerkelijke repressie van Afro-Curaçaose volksuitingen. - 337 p. ill.

"Informative dissertation looks at formal and informal repression of Tambu and consequences of this repression for Afro-Antillan cultural life. The repression provoked open and hidden rebellion, and changed the character of Tambu; yet Tambu was never completely eliminated on Curaçao. Includes one-page, poorly translated summaries in English and also Papiamentu. Careful editing would have enhanced the readability of this study"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58. http://www.loc.gov/hlas/
