AbstractHistoryArchive Description
This volume addresses the multiplicity of issues concerning the presentations to students of post colonial literature. The collection focuses upon the specific strategies for teaching post-colonial literature within particular political environments. Further, it offers course outlines covering the literature of a number of post-colonial regions. The individual chapters survey the changes and ideas in the discourse of "Commonwealth literatuer" since the emergence of this particular field. The essays are historical, formulating a cohesive sense of past and present.
