Cosmopolitan Criticism and Postcolonial Literature

Cosmopolitan Criticism and Postcolonial Literature

by RobertSpencer (Author)

Synopsis

Via readings of novels by J.M. Coetzee, Timothy Mo and Salman Rushdie and the later poetry of W.B. Yeats, this book reveals how postcolonial writing can encourage the enlarged sense of moral and political responsibility needed to supplant ongoing forms of imperial violence with cosmopolitan institutions, relationships and ways of thinking.
