Festa makes the case that what people read about their relations with their colonies shaped their identities, particularly when what they read cast the colonizers as saviors. Using a variety of sentimental fiction ranging from novels, poetry, travel accounts, commerce manuals and philosophical writings, Festa traces the development of the image of the aboriginal as Other but one worthy of pity and attempts at redemption, with the affect being readers' formation of themselves as individuals and differentiated by superiority. In scene after scene, the Other is overawed by the benevolence of those bringing the benefits of modern life, with sentimental emotions such as sympathy soaking every word. The author traces through number of complex ideas, including sentimental re-writing of history, emotions in an age of mechanical reproduction, the tales told by things people make, tropes of redundant personification, and the sympathetic misfire.

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 Readerʹs 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 Post-Colonial 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. -- Publisher description.
