- W2735880257 abstract "In the early stages of political independence, nations in theregions formerly colonized by the European empires had to facea problematic situation. Trying to define their new independentidentity, some of them had to deal with a complicated questionof their origins. Shared cultural tradition and history belongto the main principles through which identification processestake place. In the absence of a clearly defined tradition andunder the influence of existing, but ambiguous and misleadinghistorical accounts formation of a strong individual as well ascollective identity becomes very difficult. Guyanese authorWilson Harris explores the topic of history and the alleged‘historylessness’ of postcolonial communities already in hisearly works which correspond to the time when Guyana gainedpolitical independence. Outrunning the postmodern theories ofhistoriography, Harris questions the fixity of therepresentation of the past abiding by the enlightenmentepistemic principles. Searching for alternative sources of thepast and the way to capture it he discovers a powerful image ofa landscape (geographical as well as psychological) which, forhim, becomes a bearer of memory through which the past can berediscovered." @default.
