"After Colonialism" offers a fresh look at the history of
colonialism and the changes in knowledge, disciplines, and
identities produced by the imperial experience. Ranging across
disciplines--from history to anthropology to literary studies--and
across regions--from India to Palestine to Latin America to
Europe--the essays in this volume reexamine colonialism and its
aftermath. Leading literary scholars, historians, and
anthropologists engage with recent theories and perspectives in
their specific studies, showing the centrality of colonialism in
the making of the modern world and offering postcolonial
reflections on the effects and experience of empire.
The contributions cross historical analysis of texts with
textual examination of historical records and situate metropolitan
cultural practices in engagements with non-metropolitan locations.
Interdisciplinarity here means exploring and realigning
disciplinary boundaries. Contributors to "After Colonialism"
include Edward Said, Steven Feierman, Joan Dayan, Ruth Phillips,
Anthony Pagden, Leonard Blusse, Gauri Viswanathan, Zachary Lockman,
Jorge Klor de Alva, Irene Silverblatt, Emily Apter, and Homi
Bhabha."
