Can the writings of Tamim Al Barghouti and other palestinian writers be considered as post colonial writings or they are just literature of Resistence ?
:confused::confused:

the definition of post-colonial literature/s is sadly loose, but luckily we can, accordingly, consider Tamim's poetry post-colonial as well as resistance poetry.
good question. why do not you tell us about your experience reading 'The Empire Writes back' about such issues!

I think writings of our poets like Tameem are both post-coloial & resistant ones.
Simply, they emply what we have in our daily life inclusing suffering from occupation and so on to use them in their masterpieces. :)
And for that they are successfull, I guess. :)
