Rethinking Postcolonialism challenges postcolonial discourse analysis and proposes a new model of interpretation that resituates the historical, ideological and conceptual denseness of the Colonial Idea. It questions key issues, including hybridity, Otherness and territoriality, and expands the postcolonial field by introducing valuable, ground-breaking theoretical concepts: colonialism-as-grafting, colonialist discourse as a rhetorical and ideological palimpsest, émtissage as the space ofthe impossible. Amar Acherïaou explores imperial intellectual history and shows how the classicalwriters b2 s ideas on race, culture, identity and Otherness served as a template for modern colonialist ideology. Besides mapping the multi-layered Western imperial consciousness, the book probes Europe's anti-colonial tradition. It integrates the discussion of modernist literature with a critique ofEuropean post-Enlightenment philosophical concepts. In this interdisciplinary study, Acherïaou addresses both ancient and modern canonical texts, and offers insightfultextual analyses of works by Aristotle, Plato, Rudyard Kipling, Rider Haggard, James Joyce, Virginia Woolf, Joseph Conrad, E.M. Forster, Andér Gide and Albert Camus.
