From the rear cover
The Postcolonial Studies Dictionary provides students with an essential resource for navigating the field of postcolonial theory. Each of the more than 150 entries includes the origins, where traceable, of a key term or concept; a detailed explanation of its perceived meaning and theoretical usage; and examples of literary and cultural texts where the term appears. Written by a respected scholar of postcolonialism, the Dictionary features a short introduction to postcolonial theory and a detailed list of suggested further reading, including the texts in which many of these terms originated.
Written in clear, jargon-free prose, The Postcolonial Studies Dictionary helps students and scholars decode colonial and postcolonial texts.
