You wouldn't think it was amazing if you graduated with a Literature degree. This is the norm now. Texts are purposely ransacked for ideological goals instead of closely studied for transcendent themes and values. And I am willing to bet my entire life's savings that no one would give a shit about Dickens or Browning in this situation. Not one bit.

Decolonization as the article uses it just means to have curricula include authors from a diverse range of perspectives and backgrounds. If you think people should spend more time studying "transcendent themes and values", I can't imagine why you'd be against that.

How about just saying that directly? The language is very confusing.

It's the only meaning that fits contextually. You can also ignore the sentence that contains it and be no worse off in understanding the argument. People just fixated on that particular word for whatever reason.
