G. Vassanji's The gunny sack -- Coda: Entangled lives.Reading the life narratives and literary texts of South Asians writing in and about East Africa, Gaurav Desai builds a surprising, alternative history of Africa's experience with slavery, migration, colonialism, nationalism, and globalization. Consulting Afrasian texts that are literary and nonfictional, political and private, he broadens the scope of African and South Asian scholarship and inspires a more nuanced understanding of the Indian Ocean's fertile routes of exchange.Desai shows how the Indian Ocean engendered a number of syncretic identities and shaped the medieval trade routes of the Islamicate empire, the early independence movements galvanized in part by Gandhi's southern African experiences, the invention of new ethnic nationalisms, and the rise of plural, multiethnic African nations. Calling attention to lives and literatures long neglected by traditional scholars, Desai introduces rich, interdisciplinary ways of thinking not only about this specific region but also about the very nature of ethnic history and identity. Traveling from the twelfth century to today, he concludes with a look at contemporary Asian populations in East Africa and their struggle to decide how best to participate in the development and modernization of their postcolonial nations without sacrificing their political autonomy.Indic literatureHistory and criticismNational characteristics, East Indian, in literatureEast African literature (English)History and criticismEast IndiansAfrica, EastElectronic books.Indic literatureHistory and criticism.National characteristics, East Indian, in literature.East African literature (English)History and criticism.East Indians891/.1Desai Gaurav Gajanan1046214MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462995203321Commerce with the universe2472961UNINA02480nam 2200613 450 991048087160332120180613001303.01-4704-0347-1(CKB)3360000000464938(EBL)3114374(SSID)ssj0000973442(PQKBManifestationID)11581301(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000973442(PQKBWorkID)10961186(PQKB)10908762(MiAaPQ)EBC3114374(PPN)195416406(EXLCZ)99336000000046493820020418d2002 uy| 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrDualities on generalized Koszul algebras /Edward L.
