Empire of Language – Toward a Critique of (Post)colonial Expression
Autor Laurent Dubreuil, David Fienien Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 mai 2013
Dubreuil ranges widely in terms of time and space, from the ancien r gime through the twentieth century, from Paris to Haiti to Quebec, from the Renaissance to the riots in the banlieues. He examines diverse texts, from political speeches, legal documents, and colonial treatises to anthropological essays, poems of the N gritude, and contemporary rap, ever attuned to the linguistic strategies that undergird colonial power. Equally conversant in both postcolonial criticism and poststructuralist scholarship on language, but also deeply grounded in the sociohistorical context of the colonies, Dubreuil sets forth the conditions for an authentically postcolonial scholarship, one that acknowledges the difficulty of getting beyond a colonialism--and still maintains the need for an afterward.
