Colonial Discourse / Postcolonial Theory Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Out of stock

Description

The issues of colonialism and imperialism have recently come to the forefront of thinking in the humanities.

Disciplines such as history, literature and anthropology are taking stock of their extensive and usually unacknowledged legacy of Empire.

At the same time, contemporary cultural theory has had to respond to post-colonial pressure, with its different registers and agendas.

This volume ranges, geographically, from Brazil to India and South Africa, from the Andes to the Caribbean and the USA.

This range is matched by a breadth of historical perspectives.

Central to the whole volume is a critique of the very idea of the "postcolonial" itself.

Contributors include Annie Coombes, Simon During, Peter Hulme, Neil Lazarus, David Lloyd, Anne McClintock, Zita Nunes, Benita Parry, Graham Pechey, Mary Louise Pratt, Renato Rosaldo and Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak. -- .
