Horizons anglophones2-84269-927-0 The idea of India and the Indian diasporic imagination is the product of the rich scholarship being done on the Asian sub-continent, as well as in the many countries where South Asians have settled. The notion of ‘many Indias’ and many diasporas attempts to accommodate people with multiple identities, encompassing a complex amalgam that includes the bewildering diversity of the sub-continent and the challenging hybridity of the places where they have settled. The shaping and reshaping of identities are fundamental to the universal quest to belong and to create new homelands while not eliminating notions of the imagined ancestral homelands. The reality is, as this volume demonstrates, that old conceptions of India, even ‘many Indias’, are now inadequate to accommodate the fluid identities that characterize the Asian sub-continental diasporas. L’idée de l’Inde et de l’imagination diasporique est le résultat des nombreux travaux de recherche réalisés dans le sous-continent indien ainsi que dans les divers pays où s’est installée la diaspora de l’Asie du Sud. Le concept d’une Inde multiple et diasporique tente d’intégrer un peuple aux identités plurielles, amalgame complexe d’un sous-continent indien à la diversité saisissante et de tous les pays d’accueil de cette diaspora hybride. La constitution inlassable des identités fonde cette quête universelle - comment créer de nouvelles attaches, un nouveau chez soi, sans renier ni oublier la patrie remémorée telle qu’elle demeure dans l’imaginaire ? Ce volume démontre que les conceptions anciennes, même celles qui reposent sur une Inde multiple, ne parviennent plus à intégrer les identités fluides qui caractérisent les diasporas de l’Asie du Sud.LiteraturehybriditéCaraïbetraumaDiaspora indienneIndo-GuyanaisIndo-Caribéenamnésieocéan indienhybridityCaribbeanamnesiaIndian DiasporaIndo-GuyaneseIndo-CaribbeanIndian OceanhybridityCaribbeanamnesiaIndian DiasporaIndo-GuyaneseIndo-CaribbeanIndian OceantraumaLiteraturehybriditéCaraïbetraumaDiaspora indienneIndo-GuyanaisIndo-Caribéenamnésieocéan indienhybridityCaribbeanamnesiaIndian DiasporaIndo-GuyaneseIndo-CaribbeanIndian OceanAlexander Simone A. James1322975Andrianjafitrimo Valérie Magdelaine1322976Ashok Savitri1322977Bragard Véronique1322978Cabaret Florence1322979Chastagner Claude1283949Christian Rita1313704Croisy Sophie1322980Draga Alexandru Maria-Sabina1322981Fu Chun1322982Garcia Maria1322983Harrington Louise1313706Lauret Sabine1313725Mehta Binita1322984Mishra Vijay1159052Misrahi-Barak Judith1291421Moïse Myriam1313727Mukherji Pia1322985Pesso-Miquel Catherine1198204R. Cudjoe Selwyn1322986Saleh Zeenat1296817Seecharan Clem1315110Steele Laurel1322987Tadie Alexis1281604Torabully Khal1322988W. Shands Kerstin1322989Zinck Pascal1322990Christian Rita1313704Misrahi-Barak Judith1291421FR-FrMaCLEBOOK9910552975103321India and the Diasporic Imagination3035293UNINA
