The Cambridge Companion to Postcolonial Literary Studies, first
published in 2004, offers a lucid introduction and overview of one
of the most important strands in recent literary theory and
cultural studies. The volume aims to introduce readers to key
concepts, methods, theories, thematic concerns, and contemporary
debates in the field. Drawing on a wide range of disciplines,
contributors explain the impact of history, sociology and
philosophy on the study of postcolonial literatures and cultures.
Topics examined include everything from anti-colonial nationalism
and decolonisation to globalisation, migration flows, and the
'brain drain' which constitute the past and present of 'the
postcolonial condition'. The volume also pays attention to the
sociological and ideological conditions surrounding the emergence
of postcolonial literary studies as an academic field in the late
1970s and early 1980s. The Companion turns an authoritative,
engaged and discriminating lens on postcolonial literary studies.
