Postcolonial Modernism and the Picaresque Novel

What is especially significant in comparison to other forms of postcolonial (post)modernism is that the picaresque does not offer a general critique of a project of modernity, but through its persistent precarity points to the paradoxical logics of capitalism, which are especially nuanced under the conditions of neo-imperialism and neoliberalism.

Ceea ce este deosebit de semnificativ in comparatie cu alte forme de modernism postcolonial (post) este ca picaresca nu ofera o critica generala a unui proiect de modernitate, ci prin precaritatea sa persistenta indica logica paradoxala a capitalismului, care sunt nuantate in special in conditii ale neoimperialismului si neoliberalismului.
