Sommario/riassunto |
|
This volume, edited by Enrico Botta, Gianna Fusco, Pilar Martínez Benedí, and Anna Scannavini, is a scholarly exploration of the concept of recognition across time, space, and textuality, particularly in the context of American culture and beyond. Derived from the 26th AISNA Conference and supported by the Department of Excellence at the University of L’Aquila, the book examines the role of recognition in shaping personal and national identities, driving social and artistic practices, and influencing cultural adaptation. It addresses themes such as racial and gender conflicts, transcultural narratives, and the adaptation of literary and artistic traditions. Contributions from various authors analyze texts, artistic productions, and social phenomena through the lens of recognition, demonstrating its impact on power dynamics, societal structures, and cultural representations. Intended for an academic audience, the book offers valuable insights into the interplay between recognition, adaptation, and identity in contemporary and historical contexts. |
