Carnival serves as a dynamic site of resistance and power under British colonial rule in the Maltese islands. The book explores the interplay between theatricality and politics, highlighting how various forces sought to influence Carnival's participatory nature. It delves into themes of power and identity across social classes, examining the contrasts between freedom and control in Carnival celebrations. Through satire, censorship, and the manipulation of Carnival by both British authorities and Maltese subjects, it reveals the festival's role in Malta's struggle for independence.
