Emphasising the significance of region and locality, it explores local networks of political and cultural exchanges at the heart of an Asian polity. The book considers how imagined pasts converge and diverge in developed and developing nations, and examines the limitations of representation at a time when theories of world literature are shaping the way we interpret global histories and cultures. The collection calls attention to the importance of acknowledging local tensions-both within the historical and cultural make-up of a country, and within the Asian continent-in the interpretation of historical fiction. It emphasizes a broad-spectrum view that privileges the shared historical experiences of a group of countries in close proximity, and it also responds to the paradigm shift in Asian Studies. Discussing how local conditions shape and create expectations of how we read historical fiction and working with the theme of fictionality and locality, the volume provides an alternative framework for the study of world literature.Oriental literatureLiteratureCivilizationHistoryAsian LiteratureWorld LiteratureCultural HistoryOriental literature.Literature.CivilizationHistory.Asian Literature.World Literature.Cultural History.809.381Wong Jane Yeang Chuiedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910300007403321Asia and the Historical Imagination2296018UNINA01496nam0 22003251i 450 UON0047992920231205105244.182978-90-04-30074-320170801d2016 |0itac50 baengNL|||| |||||Boat refugees and migrants at seaa comprehensive approachintegrating maritime security with human rightsedited by Violeta Moreno-Lax, Efthymios PapastavridisLeidenBostonBrill Nijhoff2016XX, 461 p.25 cm.001UON004650602001 International refugee law seriesedited by David James Cantor.7RIFUGIATIDiritti politiciUONC076515FIUSBostonUONL000139NLLeidenUONL003056325.21Rifugiati22MORENO-LAXVioletaUONV237553PAPASTAVRIDISEfthymiosUONV237554Brill/NijhoffUONV282764650ITSOL20250620RICASIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOUONSIUON00479929SIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOSI PUB 2.0 0312 SI 24539 5 0312 BuonoSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOSI2017636 1J 20170801 Boat refugees and migrants at sea1739855UNIOR
