Examining the interventions of the British in the 19th Century, the...

Towards a Transcultural Future: Literature and Human Rights in a ‘Post’-Colonial World
ISBN: 9789042017634 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 331 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

Yet the human-rights aspect of postcolonial literary studies has been somewhat marginalized by scholars preoccupied with more fashionable questions of theory. The present collection seeks to redress this neglect, whereby the definition of human rights adopted is intentionally broad. The volume...
