It engages with the problems of representing 'difference' in lucid conceptual terms, with much attention to primary texts, and highlights the strengths and weaknesses of colonial discourses as well as postcolonialist attempts to 'write back.' While providing rich readings of Conrad, Kipling, Melville, Emily Brontė, Erna Brodber, Jean Rhys and others, it offers new perspectives on Otherness, difference and identity, re-examines the role of emotions in literature, and suggests productive ways of engaging with contemporary global and postcolonial issues. 606 $aGothic fiction (Literary genre), English$xHistory and criticism 606 $aGothic fiction (Literary genre), American$xHistory and criticism 606 $aPostcolonialism in literature 606 $aRacism in literature 606 $aIdentity (Philosophical concept) in literature 615 0$aGothic fiction (Literary genre), English$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aGothic fiction (Literary genre), American$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aPostcolonialism in literature. 615 0$aRacism in literature. 615 0$aIdentity (Philosophical concept) in literature. 676 $a823.08729 700 $aKhair$b Tabish$0705091 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910815117903321 996 $aThe Gothic, Postcolonialism and Otherness$94070415 997 $aUNINA
