The present collection seeks, from a variety of angles, to investigate the relations between Self and Other in the New Literatures in English. How do we register differences and what does an embrace signify for both Self and Other? The contributors deal with a variety of topics, ranging from theoretical reflections on xenophobia, its exploration in terms of intertextuality and New Zealand/Maori historiography, to analyses of migrant and border narratives, and issues of transitionality, authenticity, and racism in Canada and South Africa. Others negotiate identity and alterity in Nigerian, Malaysian, Australian, Indian, Canadian, and Caribbean texts, or reflect on diaspora and orientalism in Australian?Asian and West Indian contexts. 410 0$aASNEL papers ;$v11. 410 0$aCross/cultures ;$v95. 606 $aCommonwealth literature (English)$xHistory and criticism 606 $aCultural pluralism in literature 606 $aRacism in literature 606 $aXenophobia 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCommonwealth literature (English)$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aCultural pluralism in literature. 615 0$aRacism in literature. 615 0$aXenophobia. 676 $a820.9 701 $aMohr$b Dunja M.$f1968-$0472660 712 02$aEbooks Corporation. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454658103321 996 $aEmbracing the other$9225498 997 $aUNINA
