Description
Analysing the range and the impact of Gayatri Chakavorty Spivak’s approach to postcolonial studies, this book brings together the fields of conversations, questions, critiques, and subsequent responses by her regarding her influential work—A Critique of Postcolonial Reason: Toward a History of the Vanishing Present. Spivak’s theories and methods have not only been used in the fields of cultural studies and philosophy of language, but have also been widely applied in the fields of anthropology and political studies. In this book, arguments on a range of subjects including feminist studies as well as the techniques of reading texts are brought forth by the contributors. They debate the implications of Spivak’s theories in cultural studies, ethnography, and anthropology. The volume is a detailed guide to contemporary thought, and includes Gayatri Spivak's response to the issues and questions raised in the chapters by the contributors. While Purushottama Billimoria recounts the circumstances in which these thoughts came together, Dina Al-Kassim in her introduction to the volume contextualizes political movements and feminist thought.
