Description
Created as a supplement to my course on Postcolonialism, this course offers you video explanations of most major terms used within the context of postcolonial studies. These video lectures are available on my Youtube channel as well, but in this course format you will have an easy and ordered access to all the materials without having to look for them online.
This course is created as an easy reference to postcolonial concepts and terms; the entries are listed alphabetically and where possible, I have provided references to written and textual resources on the web. Here are some of the advantages of taking this course:
You will have perpetual access to an ever growing resource on postcolonial theory.
You will be able to watch the videos on any given concept to prepare for exams or simply to refresh your understanding of the concepts.
If you watch all the videos, you will develop an extensive understanding of the most important concepts and terms in postcolonialism and postcolonial theory.
