COLT 1811B - Postcolonial Theory and Fiction

Institution:

Brown University

Subject:

Description:

There is hardly a place in the contemporary world which has not somehow been touched by the histories and consequences of colonialism. What does it mean, then, to speak about the postcolonial? Should the postcolonial be seen as a new periodization in the study of world literatures, a recent trend in critical theory, or another type of minority discourse involving previously colonized peoples?
