India has often been at the centre of debates on and definitions
of the postcolonial condition. Offering a challenging new direction
for the field, this Critical Reader confronts how theory in the
Indian context is responding in vital terms to our understanding of
that condition today.
The Indian Postcolonial: A Critical Reader is made up of four
sections looking in turn at:
- visual cultures
- translating cultural traditions
- the ethical text
- global/cosmopolitan worlds.
Each section is prefaced with a short introduction by the
editors that locate these interdisciplinary articles within the
contemporary national and international context. Showcasing the
diversity and vitality of current debate, this volume collects the
work of both established figures and a new generation of cultural
critics.
Challenging and unsettling many basic premises of postcolonial
studies, this volume is the ideal Reader for students and scholars
of the Indian Postcolonial.
