Beschreibungen/Notizen
A broad conceptual categorization of the composite field of postcolonial cultural studies using some keywords from the work of Biodun Jeyifo. The article situates Jeyifo's work in that field and profiles in outline form some of his major unique contributions. Apart from perhaps Edward W. Said and Gayatri C. Spivak, there is no other scholar more attentive to the radically dispersed accents of thinking the postcolonial. If many have missed much of Jeyifo's efforts, it is no doubt because those efforts have come in the form of essays and articles rather than monographs.
