      ✍️Ania Loomba's Colonialism and Post colonialism:-

◆Here I give you some basic information about colonialism, imperialism and post- colonialism. Let's see first about COLONIALISM.


 ◆This picture is speak some deep relation with colonialism,  because it's related to Literature, economics, politics, culture etc. According to dictionary ;
  
● This period has been characterised by a resurgence of imperialist were and outright colonialism.

● And one way I think, It means political and economically dominance exercised by the capitalistic status. 
° For example, Europe; Great Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Holland, Spain,Portugal, and Russia.
° U.S.
° Japan 

◆ Mainly over all Africa, Oceania a large part of Asia and North America, Colonial expansion/ aggrandizement during 1850 to 1914.

◆ Reasons:- 
°  Political, Cultural,  Economical, Ideological, Demographic, Social, Classism and Civilization are more powerful reasons according to my point of views.


◆ IMPERIALISM:-





◆ Imperialism means a policy of extending a country's power and influence through colonization, use of military force, or other means.

● Historical; Rule by an emperor.

◆ " In Russia, imperialism had developed lalongside a semi feudal agrarian structure.

◆POST - COLONIALISM :-
     




◆ The political or cultural condition of a Farmer Colony. 

● " The transition from colonialism to post Colonial in Africa."

◆A theoretical approach in various disciplines that is concerned with the lasting impact of colonization in Farmer colonies.



 ◆ So, in simply I try to define this things and now some information about Ania Loomba's view of colonialism and post colonialism. So, let's see,



◆Ania Loomba is an Indian literary scholar. She is the author of Colonialism/Postcolonialism and works as a literature professor at the University of Pennsyvania.
◆ Loomba researches and teaches English literature and early modern culture, post colonialismthe history of colonialism and postcolonialism in South Asia, as well as postcolonial literature and culture. 
◆At the center of her interests are the history and literature of racism, colonialism and national building from the 16th century to the present day. 
◆ Many of her works - such as Colonialism / Postcolonialism (1998) and Shakespeare, Race and Colonialism (2002) - engage with Shakespeare and the Renaissance Theater. Her research on the history of racism since the early modern era includes work on England's early contacts with India, the Moluccas and Turkey. (Wikipedia)

◆ According me, Colonialism means specific community and post colonialism through breakdown old traditions, ideas and morality.
