Abstract

Imperialism is seen as an historical relic, the British empire's colonial past providing rich allusions to space and territory. Yet imperialism not only lingers in the present but also shapes the postcolonial future. Edge of Empire examines struggles over urban space in three contemporary first world cities in an attempt to map the real geographies of colonialism and postcolonialism as manifest in modern society. From London, the one-time heart of the empire, to Perth and Brisbane, scenes of Aboriginal claims for the sacred in the space of the modern city, Jacobs emphasises the global geography of the local and unravels the spatialised cultural politics of postcolonial processes. Edge of Empire forms the basis for understanding imperialism over space and time, and is a recognition of the unruly spatial politics of race and nation, nature and culture, past and present

Abstract

In this book Brian Crow and Chris Banfield provide an introduction to post-colonial theatre by concentrating on the work of major dramatists from the Third World and subordinated cultures in the first world. Crow and Banfield consider the plays of such writers as Wole Soyinka and Athol Fugard and his collaborators from Africa; Derek Walcott from the West Indies; August Wilson and Jack Davis, who write from and about the experience of Black communities in the USA and Australia respectively; and Badal Sircar and Girish Karnad from India. Although these dramatists reflect diverse cultures and histories, they share the common condition of cultural subjection or oppression, which has shaped their theatres. Each chapter contains an informative list of primary source material and further reading about the dramatists. The book will be of interest to students and scholars of theatre and cultural history.

Abstract

Colonial Narratives/Cultural Dialogues demonstrates the continuing validity of the colonial paradigm as it maps the geographical, political, and imaginative space of 'India/Indies' from the seventeenth century to the present. Breaking new ground in postcolonial studies, Jyotsna Singh highlights the interconnections among early modern colonial encounters, later manifestations in the Raj and their lingering influence in the postcolonial Indian nationalist state. Singh challenges the assumption of eye-witness accounts and unmeditated experiences implcit in colonial representational practices, and often left unchallenged in the postcolonial era. Essential introductory reading for students and academics, Colonial Narratives/Cultural Dialogues re-evaluates the following texts: * seventeenth century travel narratives about India * eighteenth century 'nabob' texts * letters of the Orientalist, Sir William Jones * reviews of Shakespearean productions in Calcutta and postcolonial Indo-Anglian novels.

Abstract

Friends and fellow authors Henry Rider Haggard and Rudyard Kipling were prominent figures of imperial and colonial myth-making. Both writers were praised by their contemporaries for their alleged knowledge of and ability to speak from within the 'native' cultures of Africa and India. However, both exhibited a fascination with the colonized Other, displaying the striking ways in which the colonizing culture asserts its self-identity and authority. In this highly original and exciting re-reading of the classic works of Haggard and Kipling, Gail Ching-Liang Low asserts that the Other is actually a mirror reflecting the image of the colonizer - a `cultural cross-dressing'. Employing psychoanalysis, anthropology and post-colonial theory, she analyzes the way in which fantasy and fabulation is caught up in networks of desire and power. White Skins/Black Masks is a fascinating new entry into the current debates of post-colonial theory, and will be important reading for students of literary and cultural studies.
