Sayan Dey will speak about  "The Politics of ‘Post-’:’ Colonial detoxification and celebrating 'in-betweenness': The Anglo-Indians of Bow Barracks, Calcutta"

The global evolution of the postcolonial era across diverse spatio-temporal zones generated a highly debatable paradigm – Did postcoloniality generate a new epistemological and ontological framework that disentangled from the colonial patterns or does it continue with the pre-existing colonial ideologies?

Sayan is a Lecturer in Department of English, Royal Thimphu College (affiliated to Royal University of Bhutan) and a Research Scholar in Department of English, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi. He is currently working on an independent research project based on the Anglo-Indians of Bow Barracks, Calcutta.

The webinar consists of a 20min talk followed by a discussion.
