The programme explores colonial and postcolonial discourses and the most significant strands of postcolonial theory; students study the role that culture plays in anti-colonial struggles and the role of the postcolonial intellectual in the contemporary world, as well as interactions between the Anglophone, Francophone, Hispanic, and Lusophone spheres of postcolonial cultures; areas for consideration include representative works of literature and such topics as language, identity, gender, and nationhood; during the spring term, spent in Paris, students develop studies to include the cultural production of exiles, with particular focus on the role of Paris as a place of refuge and as a focus for multicultural encounters and creativity.
