APFIVE Post-Colonial Theory and Hero-Villain Dichotomies
How does application of post-colonial theory to character interactions in a narrative complicate traditional hero-villain dichotomies common in colonial lit/re works?

D
By exposing underlying power imbalances and eurocentric biases masked within standard good vs evil tropes.
