May. 18th, 2006 12:52 pmLOST as a post-colonial dialogue: discuss.
There are probably smarter people out there who have already talked about this (and if anyone knows where I might find this, let me know) but the last few episodes could be a really interesting discussion about the way we view colonialism and conflict. Somewhere in this show, there is a fascinating essay about The Tempest, Caliban and the Others, just waiting to get out.
( The Tempest and LOST )
Anyway, I got a little incoherent towards the end, so I'll stop, but... hm. It's interesting.
