A title is one of the most important parts of a book. It can set the tone for the entire story and is usually one of the first things you see.

God was always a huge part in his…

If there was no stamp on the paper, then that paper would be declared illegal and void. This affected all colonist alike, but mostly legal communities…

1.1 A Postcolonial Aesthetic? This thesis seeks to contribute to the dialogue on the postcolonial aesthetic, by using concepts raised in Roland Barthes’ The Pleasure of the Text (1975) as a frame, through which to interrogate the ostensibly thorny issue of aesthetics in postcolonial writing. The idea behind this thesis stems from a reading of Elleke Boehmer’s essay “A Postcolonial Aesthetic” (2010), in which she questions the viability of approaching postcolonial fiction through its “aesthetic,…
