What is Contrapuntal reading | Edward Said | Postcolonialism | Postcolonial Concepts
In this brief video I explain Contrapuntal reading, a term coined and explained by Edward Said in his book culture and imperialism. This is a pretty important postcolonial concept and would be useful to any students or scholars of postcolonialism.

My apologies for the loud siren sounds toward the end of the video: My building decided to test their warning systems as I was recording:)
What is Postcolonialism:
Since I claim to be a postcolonialism scholar, I think it is apt to include a brief description of my field of study. In my view, Postcolonialism ( also written as Post Colonialism or Post-Colonialism) is a dynamic field of literary study that focuses on the history of colonialism and native responses to the colonial policies and life after colonialism formally ends. The field of postcolonialism also offers insights into the literature and culture of the the former European colonies and their struggles after the end of colonialism.
