The colonial project scripted a unipolar spatial discourse that saw the colonies as an extension of European borders. In his monograph, Mohit Chandna engages with narrations of spatial conflicts in French and Francophone literature and film from the nineteenth to the early twenty-first century. In literary works by Jules Verne, Ananda Devi, and Patrick Chamoiseau, and film by Michael Haneke, Chandna analyzes the depiction of ever-changing borders and spatial grammar within the colonial project. In so doing, he also examines the ongoing resistance to the spatial legacies of colonial practices that act as omnipresent enforcers of colonial borders. Literature and film become sites that register colonial spatial paradigms and advance competing narratives that fracture the dominance of these borders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough its analyses \u003cem\u003eSpatial Boundaries, Abounding Spaces\u003c\/em\u003e shows that colonialism is not a finished project relegated to our past.

For many Victorians, the idea of taming cannibals or civilizing savages was oxymoronic: civilization was a goal that the nonwhite peoples of the world could not attain or, at best, could only approximate, yet the \"civilizing mission\" was viewed as the ultimate justification for imperialism. Similarly, the supposedly unshakeable certainty of Anglo-Saxon racial superiority was routinely undercut by widespread fears about racial degeneration through contact with \"lesser\" races or concerns that Anglo-Saxons might be superseded by something superior--an even \"fitter\" or \"higher\" race or species.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrantlinger traces the development of those fears through close readings of a wide range of texts--including \u003cem\u003eRobinson Crusoe\u003c\/em\u003e by Daniel Defoe, \u003cem\u003eFiji and the Fijians\u003c\/em\u003e by Thomas Williams, \u003cem\u003eDaily Life and Origin of the Tasmanians\u003c\/em\u003e by James Bonwick, \u003cem\u003eThe Descent of Man\u003c\/em\u003e by Charles Darwin, \u003cem\u003eHeart of Darkness\u003c\/em\u003e by Joseph Conrad, \u003cem\u003eCulture and Anarchy\u003c\/em\u003e by Matthew Arnold, \u003cem\u003eShe\u003c\/em\u003e by H.

L. R. James and Creolization","description":"C. L. R. James (1901-1989), one of the most important intellectuals of the twentieth century, expressed his postcolonial and socialist philosophies in fiction, speeches, essays, and book-length scholarly discourses. However, the majority of academic attention given to James keeps the diverse mediums of James's writing separate, focuses on his work as a political theorist, and subordinates his role as a fiction writer.\u003cp\u003eThis book, however, seeks to change such an approach to studying James. Defining creolization as a process by which European, African, Amerindian, Asian, and American cultures are amalgamated to form new hybrid identities and cultures, Nicole King uses this process as a means to understanding James's work and life. She argues that, throughout his career, whether writing a short story or a political history, James articulated his attempt to produce revolutionary, radical discourses with a consistent methodology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJames, a Trinidad-born scholar who migrated to England an\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University Press of Mississippi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52691194085743,"sku":"9781934110492","price":311.6,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0921\/9384\/9711\/files\/1934110493.jpg?v=1771531916"}],"url":"https:\/\/internacional.umlivro.com.br\/collections\/teoria-pos-colonial.oembed","provider":"UmLivro Internacional","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
