Book Synopsis Postmillennial Trends in Anglophone Literatures, Cultures and Media by : SoÅ^a Å nircovà
Download or read book Postmillennial Trends in Anglophone Literatures, Cultures and Media written by SoÅ^a Å nircovà and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-04 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book offers a collection of papers that draw on contemporary developments in cultural studies in their discussions of postmillennial trends in works of Anglophone literature and media. The first section of the book, "Addressing the Theories of a New Cultural Paradigm", comprises ten essays that present, respectively, performatist, metamodernist, digimodernist, and hypomodernist readings of selected texts in order to test the usefulness of recent theories in explorations of the new paradigm in literary, media and food studies. The papers cover a wide variety of genres, including the novel, the film, the documentary, the cookbook, the food magazine, and the food commercial, and present a number of themes which shed light on the nature of the new paradigm. The second part of the volume, "Mapping the Dynamics of a New Sensibility", offers a wider perspective and presents seven papers that search for evidence of a new sensibility in selected examples of postmillennial texts. These contributions move beyond the frameworks of the theories explored in the first part in order to offer new perspectives in the contributors' respective fields of interest.

Book Synopsis Representations of the Local in the Postmillennial Novel by : Milena Kaličanin
Download or read book Representations of the Local in the Postmillennial Novel written by Milena Kaličanin and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2022-10-11 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses a rich variety of voices from the margins and experiences of living in the postmillennial globalised world represented in selected novels by Irish-Canadian, British, American, Serbian, Australian, Iraqi and Māori authors. Contributions focus on illustrative examples of the contemporary novel that reflects acute awareness of globalizing processes and the rising tension between global and local identities, discourses and trends. In its diversity, the book serves to map voices from the new margins overshadowed by the intense pressure of globalization. Whether these new margins are ethnic minorities living in globalized centres of contemporary metropoles or authors whose national, local or regional voices are marginalized by works with more global ones, they are equally deserving of the attention of general readers, university students and literary scholars. The book will primarily appeal to scholars in the fields of literary, gender, postcolonial and food studies, but will also be of interest to a broader readership involved in explorations of literary works in the context of globalizing processes.
Book Synopsis Dystopia on Demand: Technology, Digital Culture, and the Metamodern Quest in Complex Serial Dystopias by : Laura Winter
Download or read book Dystopia on Demand: Technology, Digital Culture, and the Metamodern Quest in Complex Serial Dystopias written by Laura Winter and published by Narr Francke Attempto Verlag. This book was released on 2024-01-29 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Serial storytelling has the advantage of unlocking rather than simplifying the complexities of digital culture. With their worldbuilding potential, TV series open up new artistic horizons, particularly for the dystopian genre. Situated at the nexus of dystopia, complex TV, and a metamodern cultural logic, Dystopia on Demand: Technology, Digital Culture, and the Metamodern Quest in Complex Serial Dystopias offers readers novel insights into the dynamics of serial dystopias in the contemporary streaming landscape. Introducing the term 'complex serial dystopias' to describe series that allow audiences to engage with the dystopian premise from multiple angles, the book examines four Anglo-American series, including Black Mirror, Mr. Robot, Westworld, and Kiss Me First. The in-depth analyses trace the variety of ways in which these series offer critical reflections on the human-technology entanglement in digital culture.
Book Synopsis Anglophone Literature and Culture in the Anthropocene by : Gina Comos
Download or read book Anglophone Literature and Culture in the Anthropocene written by Gina Comos and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-05-02 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Defined as an ecological epoch in which humans have the most impact on the environment, the Anthropocene poses challenging questions to literary and cultural studies. If, in the Anthropocene, the distinction between nature and culture increasingly collapses, we have to rethink our division between historiography and natural history, as well as notions of the subject and of agency since the Enlightenment. This anthology collects papers from literary and cultural studies that address various issues surrounding the topic. Even though the new epoch seems to require a collective self-understanding as a unified species, readings of the Anthropocene and conceptualizations of human-nature relationships largely differ in Anglophone literatures and cultures. These differing perspectives are reflected in the structure of this book, which is divided into five separate sections: the introductory part familiarizes the reader with the concept and the challenges it poses for the humanities in general and for literary and cultural studies in particular, and the three following sections combine broader, more theoretical, essays with in-depth critical readings of US, Canadian, and Australian representations of the Anthropocene in literature. The final part moves beyond literature to include media theoretical perspectives and discussions of photography and cinema in the Anthropocene.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary Indian English Literature focuses on the recent history of Indian literature in English since the publication of Salman Rushdie's novel Midnight's Children (1981), a watershed moment for Indian writing in English in the global literary landscape. The chapters in this volume consider a wide range of poets, novelists, short fiction writers and dramatists who have notably contributed to the proliferation of Indian literature in English from the late 20th century to the present. The volume provides an introduction to current developments in Indian English literature and explains general ideas, as well as the specific features and styles of selected writers from this wide spectrum. It addresses students working in this field at university level, and includes thorough reading lists and study questions to encourage students to read, reflect on and write about Indian English literature critically.
Book Synopsis Post-Millennial Cultures of Fear in Literature by : Mustafa Kirca

This book was released on 2024-04-19 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The words fear, risk and safety have come to define our contemporary age and have been construed as a dynamic background in the human sciences against which most risk narratives, imaginative or otherwise, can be read. This volume brings together original articles to investigate “cultures of fear” in post-millennial works and covers a wide variety of topics ranging from post-millennial political fictions, post-humanist and postcolonial rewritings to trauma narratives, risk narratives, literary disaster discourses and apocalyptic scenarios.

Book Synopsis The Many Worlds of Anglophone Literature by : Silvia Anastasijevic
Download or read book The Many Worlds of Anglophone Literature written by Silvia Anastasijevic and published by New Horizons in Contemporary W. This book was released on 2024-02-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On what terms and concepts can we ground the comparative study of Anglophone literatures and cultures around the world today? What, if anything, unites the novels of Witi Ihimaera, the speculative fiction of Nnedi Okorafor, the life-writings by Stuart Hall, and the emerging Anglophone Arab literature by writers like Omar Robert Hamilton? This volume explores the globality of Anglophone fiction both as a conceptual framing and as a literary imaginary. It highlights the diversity of lives and worlds represented in Anglophone writing, as well as the diverse imaginations of transnational and planetary connections articulated in it. Featuring a variety of internationally renowned scholars, this book thinks through Anglophone literature not merely as a crippling legacy of colonial rule, or as exoticizing commodity in a global literary marketplace, but as an inherently transcultural literary medium that facilitates the articulation of divergent experiences of modernity and the critique of hierarchies and inequalities within, among, and beyond post-colonial societies.
Download or read book The Media Globe written by Lee Artz and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2007 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Media Globe, a diverse group of scholars follows emerging patterns in media beyond the United States, identifying the issues and the potential impacts on democratic communication. The authors assess the current tensions between global media practices and cultural norms, further considering alternatives in global communication that could better integrate with these norms and practices. Given the rapid global consolidation of media and the reform of its regulatory agencies, this reassessment is a timely read.
Book Synopsis Lit 21 - New Literary Genres in the Language Classroom by : Engelbert Thaler
Download or read book Lit 21 - New Literary Genres in the Language Classroom written by Engelbert Thaler and published by Narr Francke Attempto Verlag. This book was released on 2019-06-11 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Panta rhei. The world is in motion. So is literary production. New literary genres like digi fiction, text-talk novels, fan fiction or illustrated novels, to name a few, have developed over the last 20 years. And TEFL has to reflect these new trends in literature production. These are some of the reasons why this book is dedicated to the use of post-millennial literary genres in English Language Teaching. As all edited volumes in the SELT (Studies in English Language Teaching) series, it follows a triple aim: 1. Linking TEFL with related academic disciplines, 2. Balancing TEFL research and classroom practice, 3. Combining theory, methodology and exemplary lessons. This triple aim is reflected in the three-part structure of this volume: Part A (Theory), Part B (Methodology), Part C (Classroom) with several concrete lesson plans.
