Resistance Themes in Postcolonial Literary Works

This exam centers on the theme of resistance as depicted in postcolonial literature. Candidates will evaluate various forms of resistance articulated by characters against colonial and neocolonial forces.

The theme of resistance is crucial for understanding the complexities of postcolonial identities and the struggle for autonomy. This discourse shapes not only literary studies but also informs historical and socio-political debates surrounding postcolonial nations.

Students will verbally demonstrate their understanding of different resistance strategies as depicted in literary works and articulate the broader implications of these narratives on contemporary discussions regarding sovereignty and identity.

An additional focus may involve discussing how resistance narratives inform or coincide with modern socio-political movements in formerly colonized regions.
