The articles collected here explore ways to define, situate and negotiate alterity in a manner that does not do away with the other through negation or neutralization but that instead engages alterity as a reconfiguring of identities that keeps them open to change, to a becoming without horizon. Alterity and its situated negotiations with identity are configured through the body, through the psyche and through translational politics. From critical readings of angels, specters, grotesque bodies, online avatars, Sex and the City , pornography in French literature, Australian billboard art, Pina Bausch, Adrian Piper, Kashmiri poetry, contemporary German fiction, Jacques Brault and Northern-Irish poetry, there emerges a vision of identities as multi-faceted constructions that are continually being transformed by the various alterities with which they intersect and which they must actively engage in order to function effectively in the social, political, and aesthetic realm. 410 0$aThamyris intersecting ;$vno. 15. 606 $aOther (Philosophy) 606 $aRepresentation (Philosophy) 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aOther (Philosophy) 615 0$aRepresentation (Philosophy) 676 $a809 701 $aHorstkotte$b Silke$0791268 701 $aPeeren$b Esther$0885358 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452078503321 996 $aThe shock of the other$92042075 997 $aUNINA
