Christopher T. Nelson
Examines how Okinawans have contested, appropriated, and transformed the burdens and possibilities of the past. This title analyzes the practices of specific performers, showing how memories are recalled, bodies remade, and actions rethought as Okinawans work through the fragments of the past in order to reconstruct the fabric of everyday life.
