E-book (Post)Koloniale Waarden – Cariben en Latijns-Amerika; ISBN 978-94-927-297 e-book
Fred de Haas, a versatile and well-traveled world citizen, sketches in ‘(Post)colonial Values, Caribbean and Latin America’ the rich historical backgrounds of colorful Caribbean and South American countries. Through (his own) poems, poignant essays, and translations from sources in Spanish, French, and Papiamento, among others, a captivating picture is drawn of regions defined by their unique cultures. The book contains musical excerpts that can be listened to via more than 100 QR codes.
The Quest for Wisdom foundation wants to give voice to a positive tone in the increasingly hardened migration debate and the fear of the ‘strange’ Other. By doing justice to the historical tragedy of domination and exploitation, space is created for the beauty of intercultural connections, as can be heard in the poetry and music.
The catchy drawings by Josee Tesser add a humorous touch to the texts.
The e-book version as well as the hard cover book are published on the 15th of september 2025 .
