THE LOCATION OF CULTURE - HOMI K BHABHA KARTONI...

'Homi Bhabha is one of that small group occupying the front ranks of cultural theoretical
thought. Any serious discussion of post-colonial postmodern scholarship is inconceivable
without referencing Mr. Bhabha.' -- Toni Morrison  Rethinking questions of identity  social
agency and national affiliation  Bhabha provides a working  if controversial  theory of
cultural hybridity -- one that goes far beyond previous attempts by others. In The Location of
Culture  he uses concepts such as mimicry  interstice  hybridity  and liminality to argue that
cultural production is always most productive where it is most ambivalent. Speaking in a voice
that combines intellectual ease with the belief that theory itself can contribute to practical
political change  Bhabha has become one of the leading post-colonial theorists of this era.
