Cutting across a wide range of literature, film and art from different contexts and ages, this collection seeks out the interpenetrating dynamic between both terms. Highlighting the inherent instability of East and West as oppositional categories, it focuses on the ?crossings? between East and West and this nexus as a highly-charged arena of encounter and collision. Drawing from varied literary contexts ranging from Victorian literature to Chinese literature and modern European literature, the book covers a diverse range of subject matter, including material drawn from psychoanalytic and postcolonial theory and studies related to race, religion, diaspora, and gender, and investigates topical social and political issues ?including terrorism, nationalism, citizenship, the refugee crisis, xenophobia and otherness. Offering a framework to consider the salient questions of cultural, ideological and geographical change in our societies, this book is a key read for those working within world literary studies. 606 $aLiterature?Philosophy 606 $aCulture 606 $aOriental literature 606 $aComparative literature 606 $aMotion pictures 606 $aLiterary Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/812000 606 $aGlobal/International Culture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411160 606 $aAsian Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/831000 606 $aComparative Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/811000 606 $aFilm Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/413090 615 0$aLiterature?Philosophy. 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aOriental literature. 615 0$aComparative literature. 615 0$aMotion pictures. 615 14$aLiterary Theory. 615 24$aGlobal/International Culture. 615 24$aAsian Literature. 615 24$aComparative Literature. 615 24$aFilm Theory. 676 $a801 702 $aGabriel$b Sharmani Patricia$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPagan$b Nicholas O$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300013203321 996 $aLiterature, Memory, Hegemony$92296025 997 $aUNINA
