If anyone could provide any insight or suggest readings, I would greatly appreciate it. I want to examine how postcolonial writers (may include fiction writers, poets, and theorists) look at the very act of writing or concept of the literary. The point is to see whether postcolonial writers may have shown an epistemological departure from modernity via their practices/conceptions of writing--or, whether postcolonial writers have shown an ethico-political take on reality different from the politics of representation that constitues many colonialist writings. I would be particularly interested in works in which the narrator/author articulates his/her view on the act of writing, or on the relationship between the literary and community. Either anglophone or francophone is welcome. Many thanks in advance! DY __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
