About this product
Product Information
About the Book Wisdom and Silence (Nakem ken Ulimek) is a modest contribution to the pursuit of a huge dream; that is, the pursuit of the elusive Nakem, the consciousness of the Ilokano and the core of their being as a people. It explores to work out a philosophical rendition on the rich resource of indigenous culture and language from the perspective of the Ilokano-Filipinos of the Amianan or northern Philippines. Wisdom and Silence affirms the beauty of non-Western perspectives as hermeneutical keys to the grandeur of existence. There is then more to wisdom traditions than the Western paradigm that wittingly or unwittingly has sadly silenced other sources of creative thought. Wisdom and Silence aims to give a voice to those other wisdom traditions. It emboldens the commitment to the creative formation of philosophical approaches to the study of indigenous cultures, in view of achieving an adequate understanding of the complexity of human society. Wisdom which inspires harmony grows out of diverse discursive spaces created by different cultures and modes of thinking. Wisdom and Silence opens the discursive space for the emergence of an indigenous Ilokano philosophy that hopes to contribute to the decolonization of the Philippine mind. Decoloniality is not so much a wholesale severance of Western influence, but an awakening of uniquely cultural creativity to understand the world in new ways. About the Author Danilo S. Alterado is a professor of philosophy and currently the Associate Dean for the Liberal Arts, School of Teacher Education and Liberal Arts (STELA) at Saint Louis University (SLU), Baguio City, Philippines.

The book arrived well packed get & I pristine condition at a good price. I would have liked it by 1st class post & I contacted this Seller via EBAY 'CONTACT' but got NO RESPONSE via either my email account or on ebay and certainly not in my Spam folder...SO what can you say I was inconvenienced a bit but got a positive outcome? I think they're reliable for transactions but something is remiss with electronic communication via EBAY or perhaps not tech savvy or disinterested or unwell etc..

As usual with this seller, the book was exactly as described and very well packed. However, delivery times can vary significantly. This was one of 4 books ordered at the same time. Two arrived in about a week, but this one took almost 3 weeks. A reliable seller who answers questions promptly, but could improve on dispatch times.

If you're happy to buy it now, receive it sometime in the future, this is the seller for you. Strangely nebulous and self destructive despatch times for a modern business, but, I've got my book, it was reasonably priced, packed okay and as described so a perfectly decent transaction. Happy enough customer, all fine.
