Relational Hermeneutics: Decolonising the Mindset and the Pacific Itulagi - Paperback

by Aisake Casimira (Author), Upolu Lumā Vaai (Author)

Decolonisation begins with our mind. I recall gratefully changing a sentence in my thesis: We live in one of the most isolated land masses in the world, to: We live in the most interconnected land mass in the world. Mahalo Epeli That changed everything. Thus began my hermeneutic awakening. Seeing words differently and finding meaning deeper in our own island understanding helped me heal. This mana moana collection and feast of courageous and clear interpretation helps us all heal because it has always and forever been about: Relational Hermeneutics."
