Postcolonial Literature: Uncovering Western Myths

As I mentioned earlier, most colonialists consider Africa an opportunity to benefit their lives. They also felt the need for African people who wanted to help them educate themselves and civilize themselves by converting to Catholic. "Caucasian violence is regarded as the law of nature, people with integrity are seeking their divinity by suffering," he said. In other words, they somehow managed to do a great deal of damage to the life of the African community.

Academic interest in the post-colonial period - post-independence literature in the Middle East, Africa and the Caribbean, this represents the interaction between colonialists and colonists (and often the psychology caused by colonization Explain both physical and cultural damage), the UK and the US in the 1970s and 1980s. As Indian - born British novelist Salman Rushdie said, academic critic after the colony found "Empire writes back to the center". Classical colonial novels include "Fall Fall Apart" by Chinua Achebe of Nigeria (1958), The Mimic Men by VS Naipaul of Trinidad (1967), Derek Walcott of Saint Lucia (1972) .

Literature after the colony is literature from the country of the former colonial period. It exists on all continents except Antarctica. Literature after colonies often includes topics such as country colonization issues and influences, especially political and cultural independence of previously conquered people, racial discrimination and colonialism doing. A series of literary theories develops around this theme. I discuss the role of literature in continuing and challenging cultural imperialism of colonial critic Edward Said.

The terms postcolonialism, postcolonialism, or postcolonialism solve and express various adjustments to post-imperialism. Literature after colonies in particular reflects all these changes. Because literature constitutes a contact area between society and language expression. In these documents, politics and politics encountered, despised and destroyed the former colonial era. Therefore, colonial postwar literature is a productive and controversial research field without internal friction and paradox.

There is considerable overlap between literature in immigration control and literature after colonization. However, not all immigration occurs in colonial environments, and not all literature after the colony contains migration. One problem in the current discussion is how much influence the theory after the colonial era has on immigration literature in the non colonial era environment. The importance of the "post-" prefix of "post colonial" has room for debate. It is difficult to judge when colonialism starts or when it ends, so "after colonialism" agrees to refer to the period after the end of colonialism. During the colonial era, the expansion of Spain and Portugal began in the 15th century, and from the 16th to the 18th century, before the independence movement of Asia, Africa and the Caribbean in the mid-20th century, in the UK, France, the Netherlands and Germany Colonial rule began.
