Key Concepts in Post-Colonial Studies by Bill Ashcroft
''This volume provides an essential key to understanding the issues which characterise post-colonialism, explaining what it is, where it is encountered and why it is crucial in forging new cultural identities. As a subject, post-colonial studies stands at the intersection of debates about race, colonialism, gender, politics and language. In the language of post-colonial studies, some words are new, others are familiar words charged with new significance.
Among over 100 entries, this book includes definitions of:
* Diaspora
* Fanonism
* Hybridity
* Imperialism
* Manicheanism
* Mimicry
* Miscegenation
* Negritude
* Orientalism
* Settler-colony
* Subaltern
* Trans-culturation
There are suggestions for further reading at the end of each entry and a comprehensive glossary with extensive cross-referencing. The bibliography of essential writings in post-colonial studies is in an easy-to-use A-Z format.
