Series Statement:
Geocriticism and spatial literary studies
Content:
Spatiality at the Periphery in European Literatures and Visual Arts analyzes the impact migrations, both internal and external, have on Europe's literary and visual representations in the nineteenth to twenty-first centuries. The volume aims to subvert a centripetal reading of European cultural production by including peripheral thinkers, writers, and visual artists operating in transcultural contexts. The essays highlight and investigate the fertile artistic discourses generated in the spatial peripheries outside of Europe or its inner peripheries. The volume addresses the need for geocritical readings that overcome the engrained dichotomy of centers-peripheries. By doing so, the book brings a more nuanced approach to national literatures and proposes the idea of contact zones of imaginative interaction. Kathryn Everly is Professor of Spanish, Syracuse University, USA. Stefano Giannini is Associate Professor of Italian, Syracuse University, USA. Karina von Tippelskirch is Associate Professor of German, Syracuse University, USA
