Text, Theory, Space is an unprecedented, landmark text in post colonial criticism and theory. This outstanding and timely collection focuses on two white settler societies, South Africa and Australia and explores the meaning of 'the South' as an aesthetic, political, geographical and cultural space. Drawing on expansive disciplines, including: literature, history, urban geography, politics and anthropology, the following crucial issues are examined: * definitions of what 'the South' encompasses * ideas of space, history, land and landscape * claiming, naming and possessing land * national and personal boundaries * questions of race, gender and nationalism
