Uncertainties about how to represent shifting spaces were reflected in the work of scholars and audiences reading works written by colonized peoples. As empire "wrote back" to the self-ordained centers of the world, modes of representation underwent a transformation. Exploring novels and diverse forms of literature from regions in West Africa, the Middle East, and Indigenous America, Maps of Empire examines how writers struggle with unstable boundaries generated by colonial projects and their dissolution, creating alternative topographies."-- "This book examines how literary forms were affected by the decay and break up of old models of imperial administration during the middle of the 20th century."-- Issued also in electronic format 1900-1999 fast Geschichte 1930-1980 gnd Literature, Modern 20th century History and criticism Cartography in literature Imperialism in literature Colonization in literature Cartography in literature fast Colonization in literature fast Imperialism in literature fast Literature, Modern fast Kolonialismus (DE-588)4073624-6 gnd Literatur (DE-588)4035964-5 gnd Criticism, interpretation, etc fast Wanberg Kyle 1980- author Online version Wanberg, Kyle, 1980- Maps of empire 1-4875-3495-7 978-1-4875-3495-0 BK020000 XK020000 XK020000 acq-record IDSBB A192 A192 FH ENG IDSBB 490 0- Cultural spaces IDSBB 775 08 Wanberg, Kyle, 1980- Online version Maps of empire 1-4875-3495-7 978-1-4875-3495-0 IDSBB 700 1- Wanberg Kyle 1980- author
