Feminist Postcolonial Theory: A Reader 1st edition

Feminism and postcolonialism are allies, and the impressive selection of writings brought together in this volume demonstrate how fruitful that alliance can be. Reina Lewis and Sara Mills have assembled a brilliant selection of thinkers, organizing them into six categories: "Gendering Colonialism and Postcolonialism/Radicalizing Feminism," "Rethinking Whiteness," "Redefining the 'Third World' Subject," "Sexuality and Sexual Rights," "Harem and the Veil," and "Gender and Post/colonial Relations." A bibliography complements the wide-ranging essays. This is the ideal volume for any reader interested in the development of postcoloniality and feminist thought.


Marc Notes: Incl. bibl. ref. & index; Cloth also avail. Publisher Marketing: The readings have been selected to examine the textual and discursive nature of colonial and post-colonial discourse in relation to gender and the material effects of the post-colonial condition and practices developed in relation to it.
