| LIBS 622 - THE BRITISH EMPIRE: COLONIZED AND COLONIZER |
|
The course will look at the relationships between colonizer and colonized in the British Empire and India in particular. Although it will include some of the classic colonial writings, for example, Conrad's HEART OF DARKNESS, and Forster's PASSAGE TO INDIA, the course will also include some of the new historical work done on and in India by scholars associated with "subaltern studies," as well as fiction and criticism written by contemporary Indian writers. The course will consider, as few scholars and teachers have done, the way in which colonial metaphors and modes appeared in social, political, and literary life at home in England during its imperial years, and thus present familiar materials in a very fresh light.
