"The attempt to remap the colonial past in ways which will disclose its complexity, contradictions and heterogenity will allow western scholars to participate in ant-colonial critique- something that oppositional practices have not really permitted... I am confident that Recasting the World will prove to be a useful and timely teaching text for both Undergraduate and and Graduate courses in the Western world." -- Anne Maxwell, Literature and History
"Recasting the World will be of interest not only to literary scholars and readers of Third World Literature but also to those rethinking education generally and the place of the canon in higher education from Bloom to Hirsch." -- Georg Gugelberger, University of California, Riverside
