註釋Homi Bhabha: An Introduction and Critique is a pathbreaking three-volume study of the famous postcolonial scholar's work. McLaverty-Robinson's treatment translates Bhabha's almost impenetrable prose into plain English, without losing its meaning. It also explains the background assumptions and references lurking behind Bhabha's theoretical concepts. In addition, McLaverty-Robinson's incisive critique cuts through the aura surrounding critical theory, exploring whether Bhabha's ideas work in practice - either empirically or politically. This first volume explores Bhabha's views on philosophy and culture. It includes chapters explaining his social constructivist assumptions, and exploring his interpretations of art and literature.
