Abstract
Cannibalism and its uses as a trope in colonial literature, contemporary fantasy, colonial writing, horror fiction, and fairy tales are considered. Episodes of cannibalism and metaphorical allusions to perverse forms of ingestion assume different forms and perform functions inflected by historical and cultural contexts, but they are apt to construct distinctions between self and others.
