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, 410 0$aRoutledge research in postcolonial literatures ;$v30. 606 $aEnglish literature$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aJamaican literature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aRace in literature 606 $aMultiracial people in literature 606 $aMultiracial people in motion pictures 606 $aMultiracial people$xLegal status, laws, etc 606 $aMultiracial people$xRace identity 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aJamaican literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aRace in literature. 615 0$aMultiracial people in literature. 615 0$aMultiracial people in motion pictures. 615 0$aMultiracial people$xLegal status, laws, etc. 615 0$aMultiracial people$xRace identity. 676 $a820.9/352905 700 $aSalih$b Sara.$0916827 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910809278603321 996 $aRepresenting mixed race in Jamaica and England from the Abolition era to the present$93991401 997 $aUNINA
