The thesis has not been presented to any other university for examination either in the United Kingdom or overseas. Signature: 3 ABSTRACT Focusing on approaches to place in selected novels by J. M. Coetzee and V. S. Naipaul, this thesis explores how postcolonial literature can be read as contributing to the reimagining of decolonised, decentred or multi-centred geographies. I will examine the ways in which selected novels by Naipaul and Coetzee engage with the sense of displacement and marginalization generated by imperial mappings of the colonial space. -

Addition to Summer Letter
May 2020 Dear Student, You are enrolled in Advanced Placement English Literature and Composition for the coming school year. Bowling Green High School has offered this course since 1983. I thought that I would tell you a little bit about the course and what will be expected of you. Please share this letter with your parents or guardians. A.P. Literature and Composition is a year-long class that is taught on a college freshman level. This means that we will read college level texts—often from college anthologies—and we will deal with other materials generally taught in college. You should be advised that some of these texts are sophisticated and contain mature themes and/or advanced levels of difficulty. In this class we will concentrate on refining reading, writing, and critical analysis skills, as well as personal reactions to literature. A.P. Literature is not a survey course or a history of literature course so instead of studying English and world literature chronologically, we will be studying a mix of classic and contemporary pieces of fiction from all eras and from diverse cultures. This gives us an opportunity to develop more than a superficial understanding of literary works and their ideas. Writing is at the heart of this A.P. course, so you will write often in journals, in both personal and researched essays, and in creative responses. You will need to revise your writing. I have found that even good students—like you—need to refine, mature, and improve their writing skills. You will have to work diligently at revising major essays. -
The Word 'Diaspora' Has Been Taken from Greek Meaning 'To Disperse'
Indo-anglian Diaspora Writers Arti Gupta Ph.D. Scholar Jharkhand Rai University Ranchi India Abstract In today‟s world Short Stories are widely accepted among the readers as they are read in one sitting .Besides entertaining, they are the simplest way of communicating the way of life. Indo-Anglian short stories are exceptionally rich and varied in content. The writers of the genre through their literary contributions have greatly enriched the English Literature. Revolution caused by printing, population explosion, literacy and the development of modern mass media of communication added to its scope. Owing to such developments this fiction has taken a U-turn in the recent years. New attitudes have been struck, new areas of experience have been exposed. A greater awareness of values in the context of increased westernisation and urbanisation in republic India and freedom from sentiment seem to distinguish the new writing. There, emerged hence the diaspora writers of Indian origin. Today people all over the world are being nourished by the writres of the Indian Diaspora and contempraneity namely- V.S.Naipaul, Salman Rushdie, Chetan Bhagat, Jhumpa Lahiri etc. Diaspora is a journey towards seif-realization, self-recognition, self-knowledge and self- definition. The diasporic literature has helped in providing a link between India and the rest of the world.that enhanced tremendous seif-confidence with a combative spirit, by spreading values, virtues and universal peace. Perhaps, this helps in understanding various cultures, breaking the barriers between different countries, The word „diaspora‟ has been taken from Greek meaning „to disperse‟. It may be defined as the voluntary or forcible movement of people from their homelands into new regions. -

Naipaul Where man is at his greatest, he is unconscious – Rabindranath Tagore This essay deals with the problem of social exclusion characterizing the existence of the major characters in Kiran Desai’s The Inheritance of Loss from ontological and epistemological perspectives. Although social exclusion is usually an object of sociological enquiry with its own disciplinary justification, this essay critiques those tendencies of conservative social sciences that reify the social categories and generally claim as a virtue the positivist knowledge they produce – a knowledge that is devoid of ideology, value and politics. -

British Or English? the Manifestation and Reception of British Identities Represented in the Man Booker Prize
Fall 08 British or English? The Manifestation and Reception of British Identities Represented in the Man Booker Prize Iza Hemelaar s4222946 BA Thesis English Language and Culture Dr Usha Wilbers Hemelaar s4222946/ 2 Abstract This thesis examines how British identity is represented in the Man Booker Prize shortlists and winners. Through a quantitative analysis, it discusses the occurrences of identities among the authors and novels represented in the prize. This analysis examines the preference of an English identity in contrast to Welsh, Scottish and Irish identities. Moreover, it features an examination of the position of non-Western authors appearing in the Man Booker Prize as tokens. The analysis of themes and settings represented in the shortlisted and winning novels positions the prize as mediated by nostalgia for British cultural heritage and as featuring a preference towards postcolonial novels. Case studies of the critical responses to two winning novels illustrate the critical reception of these identities. Salman Rushdie’s Midnight’s Children (1981), because of its vast success, exemplifies the role of postcolonial exotic identities within the prize. Midnight’s Children’s represented identities contrast with James Kelman’s How Late It Was, How Late (1994), which has undergone fierce criticism for its representation of a Scottish, marginalised identity.
