A Spivak-centered study of postcolonial representation and resistance

Using the work of Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak as its central frame, this study examines postcolonial questions surrounding the representation of the “other” and the strategies used to challenge those representations. It brings identity, nationalism, colonialism, feminism, subaltern studies, and the place of English under Empire into conversation. The book’s scope is therefore both theoretical and politically attentive, treating textuality as part of wider struggles over language, power, and cultural position.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Students and scholars of postcolonial literary theory
  • Readers studying Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak’s work
  • Those interested in colonialism, feminism, nationalism, and subaltern studies
