Abstract
how the disease poetics of empire moves through the exemplary scenes of colonial, anticolonial, and postcolonial politics and cultural production, and how it changes as it moves away from characterizations of national self-determination struggles, such as those in India and Algeria, toward more wide-ranging forms of violence and resistance, and finally toward depictions of global jihad and other forms of contemporary terrorism.
