N2  - Post colonialism has become one of the most exciting, rapidly expanding and challenging areas of literary and cultural studies today. Yet the variety of approaches, the range of debate and the technical language can make it difficult for new students to establish a firm foothold in this area.
Designed especially for those studying the topic for the first time, beginning post colonialism introduces the major areas of concern in a clear, accessible and organised fashion. It provides an overview of the emergence of postcolonial as a discipline and closely examines many of its important critical writings. In particular, John McLeod demonstrates how many of the ideas and concepts in the subject can be usefully applied when reading texts, as well as inviting students to develop their own views of postcolonialism.
The third in the very successful beginnings series, beginning post colonialism will prove invaluable to anyone studying English, philosophy, history and theory.
