Combining postcolonial perspectives with race and culture based studies, which have merged the fields of African and black American studies, this volume concentrates on women writers, exploring how the (post) colonial condition is reflected in women's literature. The essays are united by their focus on attempts to create alternative value systems through the rewriting of history or the reclassification of the woman's position in society. By examining such strategies these essays illuminate the diversity and coherence of the postcolonial project.
Excerpt from The Search of Ceres: And Other Poems The Search of Ceres Aurora lifts the latch of morn, The poppy reddens in the corn, - Ah, woe! another day is born, And still I tread the earth, forlorn, And call on gods and men for thee, Persephone, Persephone! Through Enna's flowery vale, I wist, Thy feet might wander as they list: No amorous god with thee had tryst, Thy mouth no mortal lover kissed, And all the Fates were kind to thee, Persephone, Persephone! At morn, through valleys moist with rain, I went to view the ripened grain; The happy reapers piled the wain, All day I trod the teeming plain, At eve, in vain I sought for thee, Persephone, Persephone!
