- Double-weighted statement
- This 110,000-word collection of original essays brings together established experts and emerging scholars to forge new directions in the field by focusing on neglected literary genres in postcolonial studies (theatre, graphic novel, poetry, film, life writing, gaming). It engages with texts and contexts across the Caribbean, South Asia, Africa, South America, Middle East, UK, USA, Canada, and Australia to make visible original work on digital humanities, ecocriticism, neoliberalism, economics, the literary marketplace, faith, secularism, gender, sexuality, diaspora, refugeeism, and world literature in order to encompass a broader conceptualisation of postcolonial studies by and for scholars.

- Additional information
- Ramone was invited by Bloomsbury to edit this volume examining postcolonial contexts across the globe and across all literary genres, making visible cutting-edge work in digital humanities, graphic fiction, and video gaming, alongside poetry, drama, life-writing, and prose fiction. As well as overseeing the project from proposal to production and commissioning contributors to include international scholars, Ramone authored the Introduction (pp. 1-9) and an essay (pp. 77-88), authored an interview-article, and compiled the Index.
