Eighteenth-Century British Literature and Postcolonial Studies
ISBN: 9780748634552 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book convincingly challenges both the extremely short historical memory of most postcolonial work and the all-too-insularly English world still conjured by period specialists. Hogarthian whores and Grub Street hacks, coffee houses and fashionable pastimes, and the burgeoning of print culture all stand revealed as intimately bound to portents of plantation insurgency, agitation for abolition, and the vast fortunes produced by the labouring bodies of the poor, the colonized, and the enslaved. Eighteenth-century studies has never appeared in a more engaged and fascinating light.'Professor...

These poets, and many others like them, recognized that the nation and its values and institutions were being defined by the...

An interdisciplinary collection of essays designed to map out a wide-ranging and productive future for postcolonial studies, this volume assesses the current state of the field and points toward its most promising new developments.
