This groundbreaking volume offers not only a critical examination of approaches to decolonization, but also fresh ways of thinking about the relationship between anthropology and colonialism, and how we might move beyond colonialism’s troubling legacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSoumhya Venkatesan describes the work already underway, and the work still needed, to extend the horizons of the discipline. Drawing on scholarship from anthropology and cognate disciplines, as well as ethnographic and other case studies, she argues both that the practice of anthropology needs to be and do better, and that it is worth saving.

Yet this expansion of our reading lists is only the start of a broader decolonisation of literary studies as a discipline; there is much left to be done. How can students and educators best participate in this urgent intellectual and political project?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnna Bernard argues that the decolonisation of literary studies requires a change to not only what, but how, we read. In lively prose, she explores work that has already been done, both within and beyond the academy, and challenges readers to think about where we go from here. She suggests ways to recognise and respond to the political work that texts do, considering questions of language and translation, comparative reading, ideological argument, and genre in relation to the history of anticolonial struggle. Above all, Bernard shows that although we still have far to go, the work of decolonising literary studies is already under way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDecolonizing Literature\u003c\/em\u003e is a must-have resource for all those concerned with the development and future of the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47596166086892,"sku":"9781509544639","price":37.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/11ddeaa6240ae538d4b76b919f6a2cc6.jpg?v=1777931058"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/series-decolonizing-the-curriculum.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
