  • 摘要:Why are the .natives. uncomfortable in their .translated. homes. Who is trying to .translate their experiences and why. Why is Amitav Ghosh fascinated with .history. and with the identity of the .native. in .postmodern. times.. In general terms, .historicism. is a belief that no critical account of a text can be complete without a sense of the historical context in which it was produced and received. With the help of the historicity Ghosh probably connects past with the present, which creates a complete picture of the postcolonial world. How should the native be conceived. What are images of the .native.. Can we devise another way of conceiving otherness that is free of an image. Ghosh, through his novel The Hungry Tide, tries to invoke .histories struggles,. .movements,. .texts,. and .contexts. to reconnect to the native. In doing so tries to pick up a genuine problem of the native/ marginal for which he (the native) struggled in the past and creates a work of fiction in which the natives are viewed from a contemporary postcolonial lens, and they appear one of us our equals and our images, in our shapes and in our forms
