It stresses the Filipino performing body's location as it conjoins colonial histories of the Philippines with U.S. race relations and discourses of globalization. Puro arte, translated from Spanish into English, simply means ?pure art.? In Filipino, puro arte however performs a much more ironic function, gesturing rather to the labor of over-acting, histrionics, playfulness, and purely over-the-top dramatics. In this book, puro arte functions as an episteme, a way of approaching the Filipino/a performing body at key moments in U.S.-Philippine imperial relations, from the 1904 St. Louis World?s Fair, early American plays about the Philippines, Filipino patrons in U.S. taxi dance halls to the phenomenon of Filipino/a actors in Miss Saigon. Using this varied archive, Puro Arte turns to performance as an object of study and as a way of understanding complex historical processes of racialization in relation to empire and colonialism. 410 0$aPostmillennial pop. 606 $aImperialism$xSocial aspects$zPhilippines 606 $aNationalism$xSocial aspects$zPhilippines 606 $aPopular culture$xPolitical aspects$zUnited States 606 $aPopular culture$xPolitical aspects$zPhilippines 606 $aPerforming arts$xPolitical aspects$zUnited States 606 $aPerforming arts$xPolitical aspects$zPhilippines 606 $aEthnicity$xPolitical aspects$zPhilippines 606 $aFilipino Americans$xEthnic identity 607 $aUnited States$xRelations$zPhilippines 607 $aPhilippines$xRelations$zUnited States 615 0$aImperialism$xSocial aspects 615 0$aNationalism$xSocial aspects 615 0$aPopular culture$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aPopular culture$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aPerforming arts$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aPerforming arts$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aEthnicity$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aFilipino Americans$xEthnic identity. 676 $a305.89921073 700 $aBurns$b Lucy Mae San Pablo$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01537553 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786361003321 996 $aPuro Arte$93786926 997 $aUNINA
