Produktbeschreibung
Placing his writing within the context of the development of Indian modernity and a modern Bengali vernacular tradition so as to enrich our understanding of the contexts that have shaped his work, this book argues that Amitav Ghosh's exploration of the complex ambiguities of colonial and post-colonial relationships illuminates the ethical and political challenges of the post-colonial predicament. "Amitav Ghosh" is for students and teachers of postcolonial literatures in English at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels, and also those who share an interest in Ghosh's intellectual project: historians, anthropologists, and political theorists concerned with South Asia, South-East Asia, and the Middle East.
Amitav Ghosh is the first full-length critical monograph on this important post-colonial contemporary writer to be published outside India. It offers in-depth analysis of all Ghosh's major fictional and non-fictional works and is an authoritative introduction to the themes, ideas and contexts that have informed and shaped his work.
