| Abstract: | This course will explore contemporary English-language novels written by writers from countries like India, New Zealand, South Africa, the USA, Canada, Sri Lanka and Sudan. The course focuses on how these texts represent and engage the project we call colonialism. Theory readings will include work by writers from Australia, Palestine and the US. The class aims to enhance our grasp of (a) the impact of 500 years of European colonialism on world literature, and (b) how reading literature from post-colonial theoretical perspectives might enrich our understanding of and engagement with the world we live in. Prerequisites: Any 200-level literature course or permission from instructor. |
