Opis

These volumes aim to document the scope of postcolonialism as a multidisciplinary project re-examining the history and legacy of colonialism from the perspectives of the colonized as well as the colonizers. This anthology gathers the most influential sources in postcolonial work from different disciplinary traditions, including some work in translation. Each entry is reprinted in full so that statements may be understood in their context. By establishing a critical archive of crucial writings from a variety of disciplines and geographical locations, the text outlines the shape of this controversial field, establishing a foundation for future work.
