Synopsis
New National and Post-colonial Literatures provides a comparative and up-to-date introduction to colonial, new national and post-colonial literatures, and related criticism. While free of jargon and intended as an introduction to those new to the subject, the collection of original essays contributes to the ongoing discussion about the new literatures, and will also interest the specialist. Many of the contributors are acknowledged leaders in their fields. Besides examining the main concerns, opinions, and theories that have shaped discussion in this area, there is also a detailed bibliography of primary and secondary sources.
The approach is comparative and by topic. The essays range from discussion of colonial literatures through nationalism to the internationalization of literature, multiculturalism, writing by post-colonial women, and analysis of the literature of the native peoples of Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Most of the essays discuss creative writers and critics, including V. S. Naipaul, Derek Walcott, Chinua Achebe, Vikram Seth, Fred D'Aguiar, Anita Desai, and Jamaica Kincaid. Three essays discuss the history, development, and problems of theories of post-colonialism. New National and Post-colonial Literatures also centres upon the problems of categorizing literatures, and their politicization, and recognizes that in a time of massive migration, rapid international communication, and increased demands by minorities, national cultures are less stable than in the past and the very notion of national identity is changing.

This book provides a comparati ve and up-to-date survey of colonial, new national and post-colonial literatures , and related criticism. At the same time, the essays address the problem of est ablishing such politicized categories of literature; they recognize that, in a t ime of massive migration, rapid international communication, and increased deman ds by minorities, national cultures and national identities are less stable than ever before. Intended as an introduction for those new to the subject, the coll ection contributes to the ongoing discussion about the new literatures, and shou ld also interest the specialist. Editorial Reviews Review `truly scholarly . a most timely book and one which should be read by all in this field. Postcolon ial studies are in desperate need of a book which is both comprehensive and scho larly, and this fills that need with point and challenge. Bruce King has once ag ain demonstrated just how good an editor and scholar he is by choosing wisely an d strategically his many contributors. The essays are both comprehensive and sub stantial, setting new standards for postcolonial criticism as well as providing very necessary backgrounds, something which many attempt but don't succeed in do ing well or properly. / The range is impressive.'
