Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A selection of papers presented at the Symposium on English Literature by Asian authors entitled Asian Voices in English held at The University of Hong Kong, 27-30 April 1990. Two kinds of writing experience are focused upon: one is the experience of post-colonial writers, who are re-appropriating the English language for their own cultural purposes. The other is the experience of immigrant writers, who bring an Asian view to bear on the culture of the English-speaking countries in which they live.

Download or read book Cosmopolitan Novel written by Berthold Schoene and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-23 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While traditionally the novel has been seen as tracking the development of the nation state, Schoene queries if globalisation might currently be prompting the emergence of a new sub-genre of the novel that is adept at imagining global community. The book introduces a new generation of contemporary British writers (Rachel Cusk, Kiran Desai, Hari Kunzru, Jon McGregor and David Mitchell) whose work is read against that of established novelists Arundhati Roy, James Kelman and Ian McEwan. Each chapter explores a different theoretical key concept, including 'glocality', 'glomicity', 'tour du monde', 'connectivity' and 'compearance'. Key Features:* Defines the new genre of the 'cosmopolitan novel' by reading contemporary British fiction as responsive to new global socio-economic formations* Expands knowledge of world culture, national identity, literary creativity and political agency by introducing concepts from globalisation and cosmopolitan theory into literary studies * Explores debates on Britishness and 'the contemporary' with close reference to the fall of the Berlin Wall on 9/11/1989 and the World Trade Centre attacks on 11/9/2001 * Introduces a new generation of British writers within a complex global context by drawing on Jean-Luc Nancy's work on community and creative world-formation

Download or read book Terranglian Territories written by Susanne Hagemann and published by Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften. This book was released on 2000 with total page 696 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume focusses on regional and national aspects of literatures in English, and in particular on the literatures of Scotland, England and Ireland in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Other parts of Terranglia, from Wales to the United States and from Australia to Nigeria, are covered as well. Approaches oriented towards comparison, intertextuality and translation enable the inclusion of literatures in languages other than English. Gender is a central area of interest, as is postcolonialism. The volume as a whole illustrates the large variety of ways in which territoriality can be constructed and theorized.

Download or read book Defining New Idioms and Alternative Forms of Expression written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2022-05-16 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This first volume of ASNEL Papers gathers together a broad range of reflections on, and presentations of, the social and expressive underpinnings of post-colonial literary cultures, concentrating on aspects of orality, social structure and hybridity, the role of women in cultural production, performative and media representations (theatre, film, advertising) and their institutional forms, and the linguistic basis of literature (including questions of multilingualism, pidgins and creoles, and translation). Some of the present studies adopt a diachronic approach, as in essays devoted to European colonial influences on African literatures, the populist colonial roots of Australian drama, and the intersection of exogenous and autochthonous languages in the cultural development and identity formation of Cameroon, Tanzania and the Swahili-speaking regions of Africa. Broadly synchronic perspectives (which nevertheless take cognizance of developmental determinants) range over dominant genres — poetry, short fiction and the novel, children's literature, theatre, film - and cover indigene literatures (Australian Aboriginal, Maori, First Nations) and regional creativity in West, East and South Africa, the Caribbean, India and the South-East Asian diaspora, and the settler colonies of Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Authors treated within broader frameworks include Chinua Achebe, 'Biyi Bandele-Thomas, Bole Butake, Shashi Deshpande, Louis Esson, Lorna Goodison, Patricia Grace, Bland Holt, Keri Hulme, Witi Ihimaera, Kazuo Ishiguro, Rita Kleinhart, Hanif Kureishi, Werewere Liking, Timothy Mo, V.S. Naipaul, Salman Rushdie, and Ruby Slipperjack. There are self-testimonies from the writers Geoff Goodfellow, Darrelyn Gunzburg and Don Mattera, poems by David Dabydeen, Geoff Goodfellow and Olive Senior. Of particular value to this collection are the perspectives offered by African, Caribbean and Eastern European contributors.

Download or read book Literature(s) in English written by Wolfgang Zach and published by Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften. This book was released on 1990 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally, English Studies has been confined to the culture and literature of Great Britain and the USA. However, English is not only spoken in Britain and America, but also by roughly 400 million English native speakers of other nationalities throughout the world. Particularly since World War II we have witnessed the rise of a «World Literature in English» comprising literatures and cultures from all continents. The present volume affords new insights into the consequences of this phenomenon for university teaching and research. The contributions deal with the literary, cultural, social, and linguistic aspect of the «New Literatures» and shed light on theoretical issues as well as current developments in various countries around the world.
