In Cannibalism and the Colonial World, published in 1998, an
international team of specialists from a variety of disciplines -
anthropology, literature, art history - discusses the historical
and cultural significance of western fascination with the topic of
cannibalism. Addressing the image as it appears in a series of
texts - popular culture, film, literature, travel writing and
anthropology - the essays range from classical times to
contemporary critical discourse. Cannibalism and the Colonial World
examines western fascination with the figure of the cannibal and
how this has impacted on the representation of the non-western
world. This group of literary and anthropological scholars analyses
the way cannibalism continues to exist as a term within colonial
discourse and places the discussion of cannibalism in the context
of postcolonial and cultural studies.
