The term is heavily loaded and has come to mean a wide, and often bewildering, variety of approaches, methods, politics and ideas. Beginning with the historical origins of postcolonial thought in the writings of Gandhi, Cesaire and Fanon, this guide moves on to Edward Said's articulation into a critical approach and finally to postcolonialism's multiple forms in contemporary critical thinking, including theorists such as Bhabha, Spivak, Arif Dirlik and Aijaz Ahmed. 410 0$aGuides for the Perplexed 606 $aDeveloping countries -- Literatures -- History and criticism -- Theory, etc 606 $aLiterature, Modern -- 20th century -- History and criticism -- Theory, etc 606 $aPostcolonialism in literature 606 $aPostcolonialism 608 $aElectronic books. 615 4$aDeveloping countries -- Literatures -- History and criticism -- Theory, etc. 615 4$aLiterature, Modern -- 20th century -- History and criticism -- Theory, etc. 615 4$aPostcolonialism in literature. 615 4$aPostcolonialism. 676 $a809/.933581 700 $aNayar$b Pramod K$0627133 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459498603321 996 $aPostcolonialism$92104417 997 $aUNINA
