Postcolonial Literatures in Context is a clear, accessible and
concise introduction to postcolonial literatures in English (and
English translation) and their wider contexts. It begins by
introducing key issues involved in the study of postcolonial
literature including old and new diasporas, postcolonial
nationalisms, indigenous identities and politics and globalization.
Close readings of commonly studied texts from and about Africa,
Australia, Canada, Palestine and South Asian diasporas highlight
critical questions and ways of reading postcolonial texts. A
chapter on afterlives and adaptations explores a range of wider
cultural texts including film, non-fiction and art. The final
section introduces key critical interpretations from different
perspectives including diaspora theory, feminism, indigeneity and
the postcolony. 'Review, Reading and Research' sections give
suggestions for further reading, discussion and research.
Introducing texts, contexts and criticism, this is a lively and
up-to-date resource for anyone studying postcolonial literatures.
