O knihe
This book addresses the trauma of the Post-colonial subject in Zimbabwean fiction. It argues that the post-colonial hybridity in Zimbabwean community plays a double-edged role: trauma and resistance. Specifically, the book highlights that in the post-colonial Shona community, trauma of the Shona subjects is caused by their cultural hybridity engendered by colonialism. But at the same time, the same hybridity is used as a weapon by the traumatized subject to resist western cultural hegemony in the local community. The analysis is conducted through Homi K. Bhabha's view of post-colonial hybridity. Post-colonial hybridity as coined by the postcolonial critic in The Location of Culture is a double-edged weapon: trauma and resistance for the colonized subject. In the light of post-colonial hybridity as a double-edged concept, the study finds out that the Zimbabwean colonized subject is traumatized by hybridity and at by the same token saved from colonialism by this hybridity.
