Description

Explore the complex relationship between urban spaces and identity in The Postcolonial City and its Subjects. Part of the Routledge Research in Postcolonial Literatures series, this work examines how twentieth and twenty-first century literary and cultural formations shape the postcolonial city. Author Varma provides a deep reading of historical and contemporary debates on urbanism. By using postcolonial fictions and their surrounding cultural fields as a lens, the text offers a representational history of three major global cities: London, Nairobi, and Bombay. This book engages three key theoretical frameworks to analyze the city within postcolonial theory and culture. It is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in how new subjects are constituted within urban environments during the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.
