Abstract
The question of claiming agency for marginalized peoples, and describing and analyzing the nature of this agency and subjectivity, has been at the heart of the postcolonial project. This apparently simple objective is complicated by two major factors that strike at the root of the very possibility of such a project. The first is the fact that one of the more enduring legacies of the imperialist project was the textual obliteration of the voice of the Other.
