The book is divided into two major parts, the first of which comprises literary representations of multiculturalism and discussions of its impasses and impacts in fictional circumstances. In turn, the second part primarily focuses on culture at large and real-life consequences. Taken together, the two complementary parts offer an illuminating and well-rounded overview of representations of multiculturalism in literature and contemporary culture from a variety of critical perspectives. 410 0$aIssues in Literature and Culture,$x2365-967X 606 $aLiterature, Modern?20th century 606 $aLiterature, Modern?21st century 606 $aMulticulturalism in literature 606 $aMultilingualism 606 $aCultural property 606 $aContemporary Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/815000 606 $aGlobal/International Culture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411160 606 $aCultural Heritage$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/419000 615 0$aLiterature, Modern?20th century. 615 0$aLiterature, Modern?21st century. 615 0$aMulticulturalism in literature. 615 0$aMultilingualism. 615 0$aCultural property. 615 14$aContemporary Literature. 615 24$aGlobal/International Culture. 615 24$aCultural Heritage. 676 $a401.93 702 $aMydla$b Jacek$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPoks$b Ma?gorzata$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aDrong$b Leszek$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255062303321 996 $aMulticulturalism, Multilingualism and the Self: Literature and Culture Studies$92498745 997 $aUNINA
