Definition Postcolonialism is looking at a text from a viewpoint against the ideas of colonialism/imperialism.

When It Started It was started around 1950 and is still very present today The writing of postcolonialism has been around for hundreds of years but the true criticism of the type of literature just recently started in the last 40-50 years.

Status Today Postcolonialism is very popular today especially in places such as Africa, and the Middle East because both these regions have experienced large amounts of outside control and have made many volumes of literature about breaking away and becoming independent.

Founders There is no specific founder but these people helped spread the ides of postcolonialism Edward Said - Orientalism, 1978; Culture and Imperialism, 1994 Kamau Brathwaite - The History of the Voice, 1979 Gayatri Spivak - In Other Worlds: Essays in Cultural Politics, 1987 Chinua Achebe - Things Fall Apart, 1958 Homi Bhabha - The Location of Culture, 1994

Why It Was Made Made because of minorities rising up and saying that what their colonizers believed was wrong Example: Nelson Mandela and the disagreement of apartheid.

Promoters Today The main countries that promote most of the Postcolonial ideas are some countries in The Middle East and some in Africa. They are all basically just the countries that the European countries settled.

Famous Authors Jonathan Swift (in The Victorian Web) Ireland Oscar Wilde, (in The Victorian Web) from Ireland, was a very popular poet and story maker who wrote large volumes of literature about escaping from British Colonial Rule. Kazuo Ishiguro from UK. Oscar Wilde Kazuo Ishiguro Jonathan Swift

Basic Beliefs, What We Look For The issues of power, economics, politics, religion, and culture and how these work to show the controlling of the colonizer and the colony. It is the rejection of the colonialist beliefs
