Featured Title of the Month

Encyclopedia of Post-Colonial Literatures in English from Routledge

Post-Colonial Literatures in English, together with English Literature and American Literature, form one of the three major groupings of literature in English, and, as such, are widely studied around the world. Their significance derives from the richness and variety of experience which they reflect. This encyclopedia documents the history and development of this body of work from A (Gemino Henson Abad) to Z (Fay Zwicky) and includes original research relating to the literatures of some 50 countries and territories. It explores the effect of the colonial and post-colonial experience on literatures in English worldwide.

This second edition of the encyclopedia includes entries on genres, major subjects and critical biographies of writers; entries on countries or regions whose literatures are examined in the encyclopedia; and 'overview' entries that provide a synoptic view of a number of important subject and genre entries.

Read a few of the fascinating entries:

• Margaret Atwood
• An overview on censorship and in specific countries like Singapore or Canada
• East African folklore
• Language in the Caribbean or Philippines
• Myth in Indian-English Literature
• Novels in Australia, Hong Kong or South Africa
• Salman Rushdie
• Women poets in India
