Résumé
In "Hawaii's Story by Hawaii's Queen, " Lili ªuokalani offers a poignant autobiographical account that reveals the complexities of Hawaiian history and culture through the lens of her reign. Written in a direct yet lyrical style, the text intertwines personal narrative with historical events, providing insights into the socio-political landscape of Hawaii during the late 19th century. The book examines themes of sovereignty, identity, and colonialism, serving as both a memoir and a call for justice amid the upheaval faced by her people, particularly following the overthrow of the monarchy and the annexation of Hawaii by the United States.
Lili ªuokalani, the last reigning monarch of Hawaii, was deeply influenced by her experiences of loss and resilience, which shaped her commitment to her people and heritage. Educated and well-versed in Western literature and music, she employed her talents to articulate the struggles faced by Hawaiians. Her unique position as a queen and her subsequent advocacy for her nation lend a personal authenticity to her writing, as she navigated her role as both a leader and a woman in a tumultuous era.
This remarkable work is essential reading for anyone interested in the intersections of colonialism, identity, and power. Lili ªuokalani's eloquent prose serves to illuminate the rich culture of Hawaii and the importance of preserving its history.
