The study of what used to be called Commonwealth literature, or the new literatures, has by now come to be known as postcolonial study. This collection of essays investigates the status of postcolonial studies today. The contributors come from three generations: the pioneers who introduced study of the "new" literatures into university English departments, the next generation who refined and developed many of the theoretical positions embodied in postcolonial study, and the next, much younger, generation, who use the established practices of the discipline to investigate the application of this theory in a wide range of cultural contexts. Although the authors write from such different starting points, a surprisingly similar set of images, phrases and topics of concern emerge in their essays. They return constantly to issues of difference and similarity, the re-examination of categories that often appear to be too rigidly defined in current postcolonial practices, and to concepts of sharing: experience, ideas of home, and even the use of land |

The study of what used to be called Commonwealth literature, or the new literatures, has by now come to be known as postcolonial study. This collection of essays investigates the status of postcolonial studies today. The contributors come from three generations: the pioneers who introduced study of the "new" literatures into university English departments, the next generation who refined and developed many of the theoretical positions embodied in postcolonial study, and the next, much younger, generation, who use the established practices of the discipline to investigate the application of this theory in a wide range of cultural contexts. Although the authors write from such different starting points, a surprisingly similar set of images, phrases and topics of concern emerge in their essays. They return constantly to issues of difference and similarity, the re-examination of categories that often appear to be too rigidly defined in current postcolonial practices, and to concepts of sharing: experience, ideas of home, and even the use of land Commonwealth (DE-588)4010437-0 gnd rswk-swf Littérature du Commonwealth (anglaise) / Histoire et critique Littérature du Commonwealth (anglaise) / Étude et enseignement (Supérieur) Postcolonialisme Postcolonialisme / Étude et enseignement (Supérieur) LITERARY CRITICISM / European / English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh bisacsh Postkoloniale Literatur swd Commonwealth literature (English) History and criticism Commonwealth literature (English) Study and teaching (Higher) Postcolonialism Postcolonialism Study and teaching (Higher) Englisch (DE-588)4014777-0 gnd rswk-swf Postkoloniale Literatur (DE-588)4428936-4 gnd rswk-swf 1\p (DE-588)1071861417 Konferenzschrift 1997 Waterloo Ontario gnd-content Commonwealth (DE-588)4010437-0 b Postkoloniale Literatur (DE-588)4428936-4 s Englisch (DE-588)4014777-0 s 2\p DE-604 Smith, Rowland Sonstige oth http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=50574 Aggregator Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
