Sommario/riassunto |
|
In our globalized world, a unique type of intercultural encounter has emerged: that between the speaking body and the foreign language.From Vladimir Nabokov and Maxine Hong Kingston to Yoko Tawada, writers have vividly captured the tensions and possibilities of this encounter--where tongues are "murderous" and words become feasts. |
