Through close readings of contemporary fictions and ""histories,"" Salih probes the extent to which colonial ideologies may have been underpinned by what might be called subject-constituting statutes, along with the potential for force and violence which necessarily undergird the law. The author explores the role legal and non-legal discourse plays in disciplining the brown body in pre- and post-Abolition colonial contexts, Routledge research in postcolonial literatures ;30.English literature19th centuryHistory and criticismJamaican literatureHistory and criticismRace in literatureRacially mixed people in literatureRacially mixed people in motion picturesRacially mixed peopleLegal status, laws, etcRacially mixed peopleRace identityEnglish literatureHistory and criticism.Jamaican literatureHistory and criticism.Race in literature.Racially mixed people in literature.Racially mixed people in motion pictures.Racially mixed peopleLegal status, laws, etc.Racially mixed peopleRace identity.820.9/352905Salih Sara.916827MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910785684203321Representing mixed race in Jamaica and England from the Abolition era to the present3846185UNINA
