Postcolonialism Cross-Examined
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-92330-7 (ISBN)
the wide field of postcolonial studies working on European colonialism
the growing field of post-Soviet postcolonial/post-imperial studies
the still fledgling field of post-Ottoman postcolonial/post-imperial studies, supported by sideways glances at the multidirectional conditions of interaction in East Africa and the East and West Indies
Postcolonialism Cross-Examined looks at topics such as humanism, nationalism, multiculturalism, nostalgia, and the Anthropocene in order to piece together a new, broader vision for postcolonial studies in the twenty-first century. By including territories other than those covered by the postcolonial mainstream, the book strives to reframe the “postcolonial” as a genuinely global phenomenon and develop multidirectional postcolonial perspectives.
Monika Albrecht is Professor of literary and cultural studies (apl. Prof.) at the University of Vechta, Germany.
