Keywords:
Bringing an interdisciplinary and comparative approach to the topic, this collection examines the literary and cultural impact of internal and external migration on European identities. Ponzanesi (gender and postcolonial studies, Utrecht U., the Netherlands) and Merolla (African literatures, Leiden U., the Netherlands) first present five papers that grapple with issues of theory, including the use of the migrant "other" for the creation of the European "self," perceptions of travel, and the historical sources of racism in Europe and their role in the construction of the notion of migration. Six essays than examine the emergence of migrant literatures in national literary traditions and the ways in which they are absorbed, rejected, or marginalized in national discourses. The final group of six essays deals with cases in which migration has a role in the reinvention of public space and public memory in art forms such as cinema, cultural manifestations, visual arts, music, and urban culture.

Recenzijas

This long-awaited book rekindles conventional descriptions of migrant spaces and does so by engaging with all disciplines. Spaces, societies, literature, cinema, and many other fields and approaches find here a happy complementarity. This is a new and most welcomed reading of an eminently problematic and contemporary object. -- Charles Bonn, Université Lyon Finally, a book with sufficient imaginative sweep and critical sensibility to tap the spread and complexity of a multilateral European culture in the making. Carefully unraveling the tight threads that stitch together an inherited sense of 'home' and history, the authors reveal a series of unfinished narratives constantly translating the elsewhere into current immediacies and rendering the local, the assumed, and the habitual other-wise. -- Iain Chambers, Professor of Cultural and Postcolonial Studies at the Oriental University in Naples, Author of Culture After Humanism
