| Sumario: | Postcolonialism speaks of those people, who have been militarily,
politically, and perforce culturally subjected to another nation. This branch of
criticism is worth practicing because it plays a very important role at least in the
lives of the oppressed all over the world by providing them with pain relief; a
pain that still continues to gnaw away at the souls of a large colonized
population. Although at the mention of post colonialism most people think of
African and Caribbean countries and of black people, this paper signifies that
the first and oldest British colony had been Ireland; that exploitation does not
make a distinction between black and white. This paper is going to find traces of
anti colonialism or decolonization in Joyce’s Ulysses and to show that how
using the colonizer’s language, the Irish novelist implicitly writes back to the
empire and what extent Joyce’s personality has been under the influence of post
colonialism. The paper also reiterates that although Joyce regarded Irish
Nationalism and Irish Literary Revival as useless and failing, he never
surrendered to the language and culture imposed by the colonizer. |
