Postcolonial Yearning [PDF ebook] 
Reshaping Spiritual and Secular Discourses in Contemporary Literature

支持

Anglophone postcolonial studies has been characterized by its secular nature. Yet as the first generation of scholars grapples with mortality, a yearning for spiritual meaning is emerging in many texts. This study synthesizes the sacred language used in these texts with critical theory in order to create a holistic frame for interpretive analysis.
