Synopsis:

The experience of colonization and the challenges of the post-colonial world have produced an explosion of new writing in English. This diverse and powerful body of literature has established a specific practice of colonial writing in cultures as diverse as India, Australia, the West Indies, Africa and Canada. This comprehensive study opens debates about the interrelationships of these literatures, investigates the powerful forces acting on language in the post-colonial text and shows how these texts constitute a radical critique of the assumptions underlying Eurocentric notions of literature and language.

About the Author: Bill Ascroft is affiliated with the University of New South Wales, Gareth Griffiths with the University of Western Australia, and Helen Tiffin is with the University of Queensland.
