World Literature : Contemporary Postcolonial And Post-imperial Literatures

by Nilufer E. Bharucha

The essays in this anthology have been written by European and Indian scholars and academics and are inclusive of as many linguistic groups as possible. They have been organised under the heads of Theme papers and Postcolonial/Post Imperial Literatures. The latter category includes Anglophone, Francophone and Portuguese Postcolonial/Post-Imperial Literatures as well as Exilic and Post-War Literatures in Germany. The collection opens with an exclusive, wide ranging interview with the Postcolonial theorist Homi K. Bhabha. In this interview Bhabha has expounded on Postcoloniality, Minorities and the notion of World Literature. This comprehensive anthology will enable scholars and researchers in the area to access multi-lingual postimperial and postcolonial literatures in a single space.
