Download or read book Cheeky Fictions written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humour is a key feature, laughter a central element, disrespect a vital textual strategy of postcolonial transcultural practice. Devices such as irony, parody, and subversion, can be subsumed under an interventionist stance and have accordingly received some critical attention. But literary and cultural postcolonial criticism has been marked by a restraint verging on the pious towards the wider significance and functions of laughter. This collection transcends such orthodoxies: laughter can constitute an intervention – but it can also function otherwise. The essays collected here take an interest in the strategic use of what can loosely be termed laughter – in all its manifestations. Examining postcolonial transcultural practice from a range of disciplinary and methodological perspectives, this study seeks to analyse laughter and the postcolonial in their complexity. For the first time, then, this collection gathers a group of international specialists in postcolonial transcultural studies to analyse the functions of laughter, the comic and humour in a wide range of cultural texts. Contributors work on texts from Africa, Asia, Australia, North America, the Caribbean, and Britain, reading work by authors such as Zakes Mda, Timothy Mo, VS Naipaul, and Zadie Smith. This interdisciplinary collection is a contribution to both, postcolonial studies and humour theory.

Book excerpt: A bloody candlestick lights the way to murder. Ginny Mackenzie is thrust back into the role of clan investigator when the matriarch of a prominent Loch Lonach family dies, bequeathing her considerable resources to a man determined to destroy the Scots’ way of life. The Patterson family left Chancie Mor thirty years ago. Maury Patterson, scion of the family and a state Senator from his adopted home in Illinois, has returned. He has plans for the Scots. He likes being rich, and famous, and admired, but most of all, he likes power. Ambition and superstition reign in this modern take on Shakespeare’s “Scottish Play.”
