Canada and Australia, as former settler-invader colonies of the British Empire, provide interesting models to study the co-existence of languages and cultures and their role as victims of colonialism and agents of oppression of the indigenous communities

 This course will provide an introduction to the main theoretical issues of postcolonial theory, as well as an overview of literary texts of different genres by Australian and Canadian authors, through the reading and commentary of literary texts and theoretical essays. It will also contain a module about the translation and reception of English-Canadian literature in Spain. Authors that will be dealt with include: Margaret Atwood, Alice Munro, Margaret Laurence, Ann-arie MacDonald, Alistair McLeod and Gail Jones.
