Product Description

Product Description
Boasting new extracts from major works in the field, as well as an impressive list of contributors, this second edition of a bestselling Reader is an invaluable introduction to the most seminal texts in post-colonial theory and criticism.

From the Back Cover

The essential introduction to the most important texts in post-colonial theory and criticism, this second edition has been thoroughly revised and updated to include 121 extracts from key works in the field.

Leading, as well as lesser known figures in the fields of writing, theory and criticism contribute to this inspiring body of work that includes sections on Nationalism, Hybridity, Diaspora and Globalization. The Reader’s wide-ranging approach reflects the remarkable diversity of work in the discipline along with the vibrancy of anti-imperialist writing both within and without the metropolitan centres. Covering more debates, topics and critics than any comparable book in its field, The Postcolonial Studies Reader is the ideal starting point for students and issues a potent challenge to the ways in which we think and write about literature and culture.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential Reading for Cultural Studies, 17 Oct 2000
By A Customer
This is a "must have" reader for all cultural studies student. This book is on my own compulsory purchase list. The key to a great reader is to cover the breadth of the subject without confusing the reader with unnecessary depth. This publication does precisely that.Highly recommended
