The problem of contested memory and colonial history continues to be an urgent and timely issue, as colonial history has served to crush, erase and manipulate collective and individual memories. Indeed, the most powerful mechanism of colonial discourse is that which alters and silences local histories and even individuals’ memories in service to colonial authority. Johnson and Brezault work to contextualize the politics of writing memory in the shadow of colonial history, creating a collection that pioneers a postcolonial turn in cultural memory studies suitable for scholars interested in cultural memory, postcolonial, Francophone and ethnic studies. 000807308 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed September 6, 2017). 000807308 650_0 $$aPostcolonialism in literature. 000807308 650_0 $$aCollective memory in literature. 000807308 650_0 $$aFrench literature$$y20th century$$xHistory and criticism. 000807308 650_0 $$aFrench literature$$y21st century$$xHistory and criticism. 000807308 650_0 $$aAmerican literature$$y20th century$$xHistory and criticism. 000807308 650_0 $$aAmerican literature$$y21st century$$xHistory and criticism. 000807308 7001_ $$aJohnson, Erica L.,$$d1970-$$eeditor. 000807308 7001_ $$aBrezault, Éloïse,$$d1976-$$eeditor. 000807308 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3319505769$$z9783319505763$$w(OCoLC)962355248 000807308 830_0 $$aPalgrave Macmillan memory studies. 000807308 852__ $$bebk 000807308 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-50577-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000807308 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:807308$$pGLOBAL_SET 000807308 980__ $$aEBOOK 000807308 980__ $$aBIB 000807308 982__ $$aEbook 000807308 983__ $$aOnline 000807308 994__ $$a92$$bISE
