ENGL 230* - Post-Colonial Literature Persons who have cultural ties to countries formerly ruled by colonial powers
write post-colonial literature. This poetry, drama, and prose often describes
how such persons are affected by both the legacy of colonialism, the systematic
occupation and domination of one country by another, and decolonization, the process
by which colonies become self-governing or independent. In addition, this literature
often explores strategies former colonies have used to survive in a world dominated
by global capitalism. This course examines post-colonial literature written in
four regions of the world Latin America and the Caribbean, Australia and Oceania,
Asia, and Africa and the Middle East.
