Nationalism and Indigenousness in Select Commonwealth Writings and Films: A Postcolonial Rereading—the first publication the new book-series Studies in Commonwealth Writings—collects 24 essays written by scholars, critics, and writers from all over the world, which, in the postcolonial perspective, analyze select literary writings and films from the so-called ‘Commonwealth countries’ (especially those belonging to Asia, Africa, Australia, and the Caribbeans) to explore how the concerned writers and filmmakers have depicted issues of nationalism and indigeneity.
Though there are controversies regarding the acceptability and relevance of the term ‘Commonwealth’, the present literary and cultural world is – identifiably – being dominated by publications and works of these ‘Commonwealth’ litterateurs and filmmakers. Ranging from analyses of Canadian writings to Indian films and novels, and from Australian writings to African publications and cinema, this anthology of critical writings—to be used by academicians and researchers alike from the disciplines of literature and film studies—seeks to fill in the (perceptible) lacuna that still exists in the field of critical approaches to Commonwealth literature, films, and culture.
