Postcolonial theory is a literary
Postcolonial theory is a literary theory that deals with literature critically. Literature which is produced in countries that were once, or are now, colonies of other countries. It may also deal with literature written in or by citizens of colonizing countries that takes colonies or their peoples as its subject matter. Postcolonial literary criticism undermines the universalist claims of literature, identifies colonial sympathies in the canon, and replaces the colonial metanarratives with counter-narratives of resistance, by rewriting history and asserting cultural identities through strategies such as separatism, nativism, cultural syncretism, hybridity, mimicry, active participation and assimilation. The purpose of postcolonial literary theory is to address and critically examine literature produced in countries which were previously colonized.
