    Imperial Durabilities in Our Times

    Series series a John Hope Franklin Center Book
    How do colonial histories matter to the urgencies and conditions of our current world?

    The French Dimension

    “Postcolonial theory” has become one of the key issues of scholarly debates worldwide; debates, so the author argues, which have become rather sterile and are characterized by a repetitive reworking of old hackneyed issues, focussing on cultural questions of language and identity in particular. Gradually, a gulf has emerged between Anglophone and Francophone thinking in this area. The author ... Leer más
