    Description

    Peter Lang Indigenous Cultural Capital: Postcolonial Narratives In Australian Children’S Literature Series: Australian Studies by Daozhi Xu

    Winner Of The Biennial Australian Studies In China Book Prize 2018 For An Original Work Of Scholarship (In English)This Book Explores How Australian Indigenous PeopleS Histories And Cultures Are Deployed Represented And Transmitted In Post-Mabo ChildrenS Literature Authored By Indigenous And Non-Indigenous Writers. Postcolonial Narratives In Australian ChildrenS Books Enable Readers Access To Indigenous Cultures Knowledge And History Which Bring With Them The Possibility Of Acculturation. This Process Of Acquisition Emerges As An Embodiment Of Cultural Capital As Theorised By Pierre Bourdieu But Carries An Alternative Anti-Colonial Force. This Book Argues That By Affirming Indigenous Cultural Value And Re-Orienting The Instituting Power Of Recognition The Operation Of Indigenous Cultural Capital Enacts A Tactic Of Resistance And Functions With Transformative Potential To Change The Way In Which Cultural Relations Are Reproduced In Settler Society. Through Examining The Representation Formative Processes Modes Of Transmission And Ethical Deployment Of Indigenous Cultural Capital This Book Provides A Fresh Perspective On Postcolonial Readings Of ChildrenS Literature. In Doing So It Makes Original Contributions To Literary Criticism And Significant Theoretical Advances To Postcolonial Scholarship.Show More
