Frantz Fanon has established a position as a leading
anticolonial thinker, through key texts such as "Black Skin, White
Masks" and "The Wretched of the Earth." He has influenced the work
of thinkers from Edward Said and Homi Bhabha to Paul Gilroy, but
his complex work is often misinterpreted as an apology for
violence.
This clear, student-friendly guidebook considers Fanon s key
texts and theories, looking at:
- Postcolonial theory s appropriation of psychoanalysis
- Anxieties around cultural nationalisms and the rise of native
consciousness
- Postcoloniality s relationship with violence and
separatism
- New humanism and ideas of community.
Introducing the work of this controversial theorist, Pramod K.
Nayar also offers alternative readings, charting Fanon s influence
on postcolonial studies, literary criticism and cultural
studies.
