  • Description: Focusing on the influence of post-structuralist theory on postcolonial theory and vice versa, this study suggests that autobiography constitutes a general philosophical resistance to universal concepts and theories. It relates the theory of autobiography to expressions of new universalisms that rethink and extend norms of experience and knowledge.
