The course Postcolonial Literatures (Постколониални литератури) discusses, through the lens of postcolonial theories, major literary and filmic texts that have been “produced by people from countries with a history of colonialism, primarily those concerned with the workings and legacy of colonialism, and resistance to it, in either the past or the present” (John McLeod). Postcolonial theories will be applied to the analysis of fiction, film, and autobiographyq which both depict and question postcolonial realities in diverse nations.
The issues of human difference and social justice are crucial to this course. Colonial ideology posited that the colonized was inherently different from the colonizer, this difference interpreted hierarchically as inferiority. The colonized renegotiated their identity through acts of resistance. In the postcolonial era, diffеrеnce continues to be marked by the distance between the elite classes, who inherited some of the power of the colonizers, and the rest of the people.
