Renato Constantino: a life revisited. / Rosalinda Pineda Ofreneo. - Quezon City: Foundation for Nationalist Studies, c2001. - vi, 312 pages : illustrations 28 cm.
This is the story of a remarkable man, an intellectual biography tracing the evolution of Renato Constatino's thoughts not only through his published works as a student editor, professional journalist, prominent diplomat, unorthodox historian, and relentless social critic, but also through his unpublished memoirs and unfinished manuscripts. It is also history, since the subject's individual journey is framed within the context of his social milieu during the "red thirties", the Japanese occupation, the Cold war and residual witch-hunting of the fifties and early sixties, the turbulent seventies, the dark days of martial law and the Aquino, Ramos and Estrada periods. For the more private and personal details of Renato Constantino's life, many of which will be revealed to the public for the first time, this work relies mainly on major inputs from his wife and lifelong collaborator, Leticia Roxas Constantino, as well as interviews conducted by the author.
