The essays in this collection turn to the past, in which Europe became synonymous with a tradition of peace and tolerance beyond national borders, and enter into a critical dialogue with the present, in which Europe has increasingly become associated with a history of oppression and violence. The different essays together demonstrate how the idea of Europe cannot be thought apart from the tension between the regional and the global, between nationalism and pluralism, and can therefore be re-thought as an opportunity for an identity beyond national or ethnic borders. Engaging contemporary discourses on hybrid, postcolonial, and transnational identity, this volume shows how literature can function as both a vital tool to forge new identities and a power subversive of such attempts at identity-formation. Like Europe, it is always marked by the tension between integration and resistance. The book will be of interest to students and scholars of modern literature, comparative literature, and European studies, as well as people concerned with cultural memory and the relation between literature and cultural identity.Textxet: Studies in Comparative Literature55.Transnationalism in literatureNationalism and literatureComparative literatureEuropean literatureElectronic books.Transnationalism in literature.Nationalism and literature.Comparative literature.European literature.809.9Bemong Nele909994Truwant Mirjam909995Vermeulen Pieter909996MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910451497103321Re-thinking Europe2036568UNINA
