Despite the anxieties that interdisciplinarity brings with it, a combination of different, discontinuously structured disciplinary knowledges is arguably best suited to address the tangled concerns of both the globalised present and the colonial past. The book looks specifically at the intersections between literary criticism, history, anthropology, geography and environmental studies, while arguing more specifically for a postcolonialism across the disciplines in the service of informed (cross-) cultural critique. Bringing together a wide range of literary material from Africa, Australia, Canada, the Caribbean, New Zealand and South Asia, the book also considers the different, but sometimes related, cultural contexts within which the key debates in postcolonial studies - e.g. those around globalisation, North-South relations and the new imperialism - are currently taking place. These debates suggest the need for a multi-sited, multilinguistic and, not least, multidisciplinary approach to postcolonial studies that consolidates its status as a comparative field.Postcolonialism across the disciplines ;1.Postcolonialism in literaturePostcolonialismResearchInterdisciplinary researchLiterature and societyLiterature and globalizationPostcolonialism in literature.PostcolonialismResearch.Interdisciplinary research.Literature and society.Literature and globalization.809.93358Huggan Graham1958-158552UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910809121203321Interdisciplinary measures1365434UNINA
