The novels chronicle wars, slavery, racism, child abuse and genocide; they reveal damages that ensue when nations claim an exalted, exceptionalist identity and violate the human rights of their Others. In sympathy with the exiled, writers of these contemporary historical fictions create alternative communities on the state?s outer fringes. These fictive communities include where the state excludes; they foreground relations of debt and obligation to the group in place of individualism, competition, and private property. Rather than assimilating members to a single identity with a unified set of views, the communities open multiple possibilities for belonging. Analyzing novels from Britain, Australia, and the U.S., along with additional transnational examples, Susan Strehle explores the political vision animating some contemporary historical fictions. Susan Strehle is Distinguished Service Professor of English at Binghamton University (SUNY), USA. She is the author of Fiction in the Quantum Universe and Transnational Women?s Fiction: Unsettling Home and Homeland (Palgrave 2008). With Mary Paniccia Carden, she co-edited Doubled Plots: Romance and History (2003). She has published several articles on contemporary historical fiction. 606 $aHistorical fiction, English$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aHistorical fiction, English$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a823.08109 700 $aStrehle$b Susan$0945677 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483680303321 996 $aContemporary historical fiction, exceptionalism and community$92135493 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01777oam 2200469 a 450 001 9910704456503321 005 20130314084155.0 035 $a(CKB)5470000002441129 035 $a(OCoLC)621294536 035 $a(EXLCZ)995470000002441129 100 $a20100519d1992 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aRace, ethnicity, and participation in the arts$b[electronic resource] $epatterns of participation by Hispanics, Whites, and African-Americans in selected activities from the 1982 and 1985 surveys of public participation in the arts /$fPaul DiMaggio, Francie Ostrower 210 1$aWashington, D.C. :$cSeven Locks Press,$d[1992] 215 $a1 online resource (xvi, 201 pages) 225 1 $aResearch Division report / National Endowment for the Arts ;$v#25 300 $aTitle from title screen (viewed on March 14, 2013). 300 $a" ... commissioned by the Research Division of the National Endowment for the Arts." 517 $aRace, ethnicity, and participation in the arts 606 $aArts surveys$zUnited States 606 $aArts audiences$zUnited States 606 $aEthnic arts$zUnited States 606 $aMinority artists 615 0$aArts surveys 615 0$aArts audiences 615 0$aEthnic arts 615 0$aMinority artists. 700 $aDiMaggio$b Paul$0128263 701 $aOstrower$b Francie$01137972 712 02$aNational Endowment for the Arts.$bResearch Division. 801 0$bOCLCE 801 1$bOCLCE 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bGPO 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910704456503321 996 $aRace, ethnicity, and participation in the arts$93534212 997 $aUNINA
