Popis: | Postcolonial approaches to Shakespeare do not simply suggest a dethroning of the canonical bard, but rather they have opened up the works to competing histories of nation, “race”, gender and class within a plurality of sociopolitical contexts—the marks of the postcolonial condition. This essay looks afresh at these histories within the linked trajectories of Shakespearean and postcolonial studies, while exploring the valences of such terms as “early colonial”, “pre-colonial” and “proto-colonial” and their implications for Shakespearean critical pratice. |
