Book Synopsis Indo-Australian Relations by : Phillip Darby
Download or read book Indo-Australian Relations written by Phillip Darby and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-02 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores a range of connections between India and Australia that fall outside the formal diplomacy of the two states. It examines how race, class and gender shape conceptions of the two nations, whose voices are heard and whose are not, and the politics that emerge from sport, culture, the drive for development as well as from language and the poetic. The book seeks to challenge the primacy of the state in determining the character of the nation and its monopoly of relations with other peoples. To this end, it looks to everyday life to find linkages not only between India and Australia but also extending through the South and Southeast Asian regions. This book was published as a special issue of Postcolonial Studies.
Book Synopsis Private and Fictional Words (Routledge Revivals) by : Coral Ann Howells
Download or read book Private and Fictional Words (Routledge Revivals) written by Coral Ann Howells and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-08-07 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1987, this is an introductory study of the most widely read Canadian women novelists of the 1970s and 1980s. At its centre lies the question of how the search for a distinctive cultural identity relates to the need for a national cultural identity in the post-colonial era. Coral Ann Howells argues that Canadian women’s fiction throughout the period of study represents how the Canadian cultural identity exceeds its geographical limits, and those traditional structures of patriarchal authority need revision if women’s alternative views are to be taken into account. Including short biographical sketches and a complete list of the books published by the authors under discussion, writers examined include Margaret Atwood, Alice Munro, and Margaret Laurence.
