    Diving into the wreck : an investigation into the 'other' voices of history within the discourse of colonialism and slavery
    (1999) Clark, Caroline Frances; Marx, Lesley
    This dissertation focuses on the occlusion of 'other' voices within the discourse of colonialism and slavery. The work juxtaposes four texts from the seventeenth and twentiethcenturies, respectively, as a way of examining the continued weight of past history on our postcolonial present. The theoretical framework is drawn from postcolonial and postmodern literary theory with an emphasis on the problematics of speaking for the 'other' in twentiethcentury literary revisions.
