    1. Chapter One: ‘The Key of Western Asia’: An Introduction to Transportal Literatures -- 2. Chapter Two: ‘A Business of Some Heat’: Sexuality, Disease, and Gendered Orientalism on Venus’ Island, 1878-1973. - 3. Chapter Three: Re-Imagining the Cypriot Nation: Writing-Back to the Colonial Travelogue, 1964-1974 -- 4. Chapter Four: Travelling Across the Buffer Zone: Intersections in Language, Genre, and Identity, 2000-2013 -- 5. Chapter Five: Re-Gendering Borders: Partition in Contemporary Cypriot Women’s Writing. ‘The colonial history of Cyprus – a partitioned island in a partitioned world – is as often misunderstood as it is forgotten. Yet, as this timely book shows, this fraught history has much to offer postcolonial studies, not least as a catalyst for the ‘transportal’ literature with which contemporary Cypriot writers, amidst continuing geopolitical pressures, seek imaginative openings to a more fully decolonized, less ideologically polarized world.’ — Professor Graham Huggan, University of Leeds, UK ‘Daniele Nunziata brilliantly investigates the close postcolonial parallels and yet specific local divergences between partitioned Cyprus in the later decades of the twentieth century, and the wider postcolonial and post-independence world. His analysis adapts and refines insights from postcolonial and world literature theoretical frameworks to shed illuminating light on Cypriot writing, while at the same time demonstrating the connectedness of this literature to the writing of other postcolonial nations including South Africa, India and Pakistan.’ — Professor Elleke Boehmer, University of Oxford, UK This book analyses colonial and postcolonial writing about Cyprus, before and after its independence from the British Empire in 1960. These works are understood as ‘transportal literatures’ in that they navigate the liminal and layered forms of colonialism which impede the freedom of the island, including the residues of British imperialism, the impact of Greek and Turkish nationalisms, and the ethnolinguistic border between north and south. This study puts pressure on the postcolonial discipline by evaluating the unique hegemonic relationship Cyprus has with three metropolitan centres, not one. The print languages associated with each centre (English, Greek, and Turkish) are complicit in neo-colonial activity. Contemporary Cypriot writers address this in order to resist sectarian division and grapple with their deferred postcoloniality.

Chapter 3: The Author as Digger: The Gipsy Goddess and the Strata of History -- 4. Chapter 4: Beyond Diaspora and Nostalgia: M.G. Vassanji’s Asynchronous Images -- 5. Chapter 5: Written Out of History: The Agbekoya Rebellion at Temporal Crossroads -- 6. Chapter 6: Time, Extinction and Accumulation: Reading Henrietta Rose-Innes’s Green Lion -- 7. Chapter 7: Conclusion: On Skipping History. Drawing on a Marxist concept of world literature, this book is a study of the manipulations of time in contemporary anglophone fiction from Africa and South Asia. Through critical work and literary reading, this research explores the times other than the present that seem to haunt an era of capitalist globalisation: nostalgic feelings about bygone ideals of identity and community, appeals to Golden Ages, returns of the repressed and anxious anticipations of global extinction and catastrophe. The term non-synchronism explored in this book captures these dislocations of the present, while offering a critical lens to grasp the politics of time of an era marked by the continuing expansion of capitalist modernity. Most importantly, non-synchronism is a dialectical paradigm charged with antagonistic political valences. The literary analysis presented in the volume hence connects the literary manipulation of time to discourses on extinction, accumulation, nostalgia, modernity and survival in global politics and literature. .

    1. Introduction: The Pirate as a Figure of Crisis and Legitimacy -- 2. Pirate Narratives and the Colonial Atlantic -- 3. Pirate Narratives and the Revolutionary Atlantic in the Early Republic and the Antebellum Period -- 4. Cultural Constructions of Piracy during the Crisis over Slavery -- 5. Coda. This Open Access book, Crisis and Legitimacy in Atlantic American Narratives of Piracy: 1678-1865, examines literary and visual representations of piracy beginning with A.O. Exquemelin’s 1678 Buccaneers of America and ending at the onset of the US-American Civil War. Examining both canonical and understudied texts—from Puritan sermons, James Fenimore Cooper’s The Red Rover, and Herman Melville’s “Benito Cereno” to the popular cross-dressing female pirate novelette Fanny Campbell, and satirical decorated Union envelopes, this book argues that piracy acted as a trope to negotiate ideas of legitimacy in the contexts of U.S. colonialism, nationalism, and expansionism. The readings demonstrate how pirates were invoked in transatlantic literary production at times when dominant conceptions of legitimacy, built upon categorizations of race, class, and gender, had come into crisis. As popular and mobile maritime outlaw figures, it is suggested, pirates asked questions about might and right at critical moments of Atlantic history.

    Chapter 1: Introduction: “Spaces of Transition: the Worlding of the South African Novel” -- Chapter 2: Zakes Mda’s Black Intellectuals: Utopia and the Public Sphere in Ways of Dying and The Whale Caller -- Chapter 3: Fictions of Terror: the Worlding of South African Fiction -- Chapter 4: Theatres of Truth in the Post-Apartheid Novel -- Chapter 5: White (Dis)Possession in Marlene van Niekerk’s Triomf and Damon Galgut’s The Good Doctor: Land, Race, Class -- Chapter 6: South African AIDS Narratives and the Question of Modernity -- Chapter 7: Environmental Racism and the Post-Apartheid Novel -- Chapter 8: Art, Visual Culture and the Work of Cultural Memory in Ivan Vladislavić’s Portrait with Keys (2006). ‘Via an analysis of intellectual spaces in the “new” South Africa, The Worlding of the South African Novel offers compelling and timely readings of a variety of works spanning 1994 to 2014 depicting the socioeconomic contradictions of the post-apartheid nation. Poyner’s work explores how, via their fiction, contemporary novelists have challenged South Africa’s apparent liberation in 1994 and grappled provocatively with its current struggles.’ — Laura Wright, Professor of English, Western Carolina University, USA ‘Poyner’s study is essential reading for anyone interested in post-apartheid literary culture. Highlighting the contradictions between the political freedoms accompanying the formal end of apartheid and the ongoing economic inequalities produced by South Africa’s version of capitalist modernity, Poyner demonstrates how in both content and form the novels of the last thirty years have captured the social realities of the ‘rainbow nation’.’ —David Johnson, Professor of Literature, The Open University, UK The Worlding of the South African Novel develops from an apparent paradox: that despite momentous political transition from apartheid to democracy, little in South Africa’s socio-economic reality has actually changed. Poyner discusses how the contemporary South African novel engages with this reality. In forms of literary experiment, the novels open up intellectual spaces shaping or contesting the idea of the “new South Africa”. The mediatising of truth at the TRC, how best to deal with a spectacular yet covert past, the shaping of an inclusive public sphere, HIV/AIDS as the preeminent site testing capitalist modernity, white anxieties about land reform, disease as environmental injustice and the fostering of an enabling cultural memory: Poyner argues that through these key nodes of intellectual thought, the novels speak to recent debates on world-literature to register the “shock” of an uneven capitalist modernity.

Revenants of the Dispossessed: A Momentary Conclusion. ‘Jacob L. Bender’s Modern Death in Irish and Latin American Literature is a remarkable exploration of the spectral in the broad Atlantic world. His argument moves beyond boundaries of land and sea to reveal the nuanced union of Irish, Caribbean, and Latin American peoples and cultures. Bender’s unique focus shows just what an intimate part of the writing life death is for artists like Joyce, Borges, Carpentier, and Beckett.’ — Maria McGarrity, Long Island University, USA, and author of Washed by the Gulf Stream: The Historic and Geographic Relation of Irish and Caribbean Literature (2008) ‘Modern Death in Irish and Latin American Literature examines an array of texts from different countries including Puerto Rico, Mexico, Colombia and Argentina, comparing them with key works from the Irish literary tradition. This transatlantic focus makes for an engrossing study and the readings of the texts are persuasive and compelling. Bender’s study teases out the rich complexities of Irish and Latin American shared conceptualisations of death and illuminates the ways in which symbolic representations of the dead can act as mechanisms through which hegemonic discourses are disrupted, and erased voices may come to the fore. It promises to be a lasting contribution to scholarship on all of the individual authors featured while prompting additional comparative readings of literary conceptualizations of death in these and other contexts.’ — Nuala Finnegan, University College Cork, Ireland, and Society for Irish Latin American Studies (SILAS) This comparative literature study explores how writers from across Ireland and Latin America have, both in parallel and in concert, deployed symbolic representations of the dead in their various anti-colonial projects. In contrast to the ghosts and revenants that haunt English and Anglo-American letters—where they are largely either monstrous horrors or illusory frauds—the dead in these Irish/Latinx archives can serve as potential allies, repositories of historical grievances, recorders of silenced voices, and disruptors of neocolonial discourse.

Lewis Carrolls Alice-Bücher gehören zu den Klassikern der Kinderliteratur. Sie wurden immer wieder neu adaptiert, inspirierten Dada und den Surrealismus. Wenig bekannt ist dagegen, welch vibrierendes Eigenleben das Zusammenspiel unvereinbarer ästhetischer Figurationen aus Alice in Wonderland in der Populärkultur entwickelt hat: als Alice-Maschine. Christine Lötscher macht diese Dynamik in ihren Analysen erstmals sichtbar und zeigt auf, wie die Alice-Maschine das Nicht-Verstehen, das Denken und Fühlen an der Grenze der Sinngebung zwischen Freiheit und Verstörung ästhetisch genießbar macht – besonders in Zeiten medialer Umbrüche.

This book presents 18 highly influential essays on Chinese literature and semiotics by Professor Zhao Yiheng, including his analysis and discussions of the development of Chinese literature and its characteristics from traditional to modern times. It is divided into three parts: traditional Chinese literature, contemporary Chinese literature, and semiotics. In the first part, Professor Zhao summarizes the core elements of narrative cultural relations, ethical dilemmas, and narrative features. He also provides a comprehensive description of the formal structures in Chinese traditional literature. Taking the traditional Chinese play White Rabbit as a case, he discusses the connections between the narrative structure and the characteristics of Chinese novels and stratification of Chinese culture. .

    Introduction -- Chapter 1: The Commodity Frontier and Its Secret -- Chapter 2 Romance and Revolt -- Chapter 3: Working-Class Writers and Frontier Modernisms -- Chapter 4: The ‘Mangled’ Body: Between Paid and Unpaid Work -- Chapter 5: ‘Its mass that counts’: Strikes and Unemployment on the Commodity Frontier -- Chapter 6: Revisiting Romance: Representation and the New Ecology Regim. ‘This brilliant monograph offers dazzling readings of the aesthetics of sugar, cacao, coal, and oil in fiction and poetry from Trinidad, Brazil and Britain. Its analysis draws on cutting-edge world-ecology scholarship, significantly advancing theoretical understanding of key concepts such as the “commodity frontier.” The book also contributes substantially to the study of peripheral realisms and modernisms, assembling a rich corpus of canonical texts and understudied writing. It promises to become a field-defining classic of comparative environmental literary criticism.’ —Dr. Sharae Deckard, University College Dublin, Ireland. ‘This is the book I have been waiting for: a comparative literary study grounded not in nation-states but in the world’s commodity enclaves. Moving adroitly between the coal pits of Wales, cacao fields of Brazil and sugar plantations of Trinidad, Niblett uncovers and brilliantly analyzes a global literature of commodity frontiers and their environmental effects.’ — Ericka Beckman, Associate Professor, University of Pennsylvania, USA, and author of Capital Fictions: The Literature of Latin America’s Export Age (2012) Located at the intersection of world-literary studies and the environmental humanities, this book analyses how fiction and poetry respond to the ecological transformations entailed by commodity frontiers. Examining the sugar, cacao, coal, and oil frontiers in Trinidad, Brazil, and Britain, World Literature and Ecology shows how literary texts have registered the relationship between the re-making of biophysical natures and struggles around class, race, and gender. It combines a materialist theory of world-literature with the insights of the world-ecology perspective to generate compelling new readings of writers such as Rhys Davies, Yseult Bridges, Lewis Jones, José Lins do Rego, Ellen Wilkinson, Jorge Amado, Gwyn Thomas, and Ralph de Boissière. The book represents a timely intervention into a series of field-defining debates around peripheral realisms and modernisms, ecocriticism, and the energy humanities.

Advancing original readings of both famous and less-known works in English and Bengali, and blending historical accounts with literary analysis, Bhattacharya interrogates the politics of literary form and reclaims postcolonial realism as an energetic and politically committed mode of apprehending social reality.’ — - Ulka Anjaria, Professor of English, Brandeis University, USA ‘Bhattacharya has produced an illuminating and eloquent study of crisis and catastrophe in modern Indian fiction. The lens of 'catastrophic realism' opens up a range of important texts to sharp critical analysis and generates fine new understandings of authors from Rushdie and Mahasweta Devi to O.V Vijayan and Nabarun Bhattacharya. An essential companion for studies of the novel in India.’ - Dr Priyamvada Gopal, Faculty of English, University of Cambridge, UK This book argues that modernity in postcolonial India has been synonymous with catastrophe and crisis. Focusing on the literary works of the 1943 Bengal Famine, the 1967–72 Naxalbari Movement, and the 1975–77 Indian Emergency, it shows that there is a long-term, colonially-engineered agrarian crisis enabling these catastrophic events. Novelists such as Bhabani Bhattacharya, Mahasweta Devi, Salman Rushdie, Rohinton Mistry, Nabarun Bhattacharya, and Nayantara Sahgal, among others, have captured the relationship between the long-term crisis and the catastrophic aspects of the events through different aesthetic modalities within realism, ranging from analytical-affective, critical realist, quest modes to apparently non-realist ones such as metafictional, urban fantastic, magical realist, and others. These realist modalities are together read here as postcolonial catastrophic realism. .

Chapter 7 Conclusion: Towards A Literary Internationale. ‘In The Global Novel and Capitalism in Crisis, De Loughry offers a tour-de-force engagement with current efforts to think literary studies in global or indeed world systemic terms. Always erudite and sharp, De Loughry is a new critical voice to be reckoned with.’ —Dr Kerstin Oloff, Associate Professor at Durham University, UK This book examines how contemporary global novels by Salman Rushdie, David Mitchell, Rana Dasgupta and Rachel Kushner have evolved new aesthetics to represent global economic and ecological crises. Paying close attention to the interrelations between postcolonial, world, and global literatures, this book argues that postcolonial literary studies cannot account for global crises that exceed the national and anti-colonial. Advocating an interdisciplinary framework informed by a synthesis of materialist literary theory with world-systems theory, combining Fredric Jameson and Georg Lukács with Giovanni Arrighi and Jason W. Moore, this book examines how global literatures metabolise not only socioeconomic conditions, but also transformations in the world-ecology, and emergent developmental and epochal crises of capitalism.

    Chapter 1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: One Director, Three Takes: Chen Yong’s Reinterpretations of Life of Galileo, The Caucasian Chalk Circle, and The Threepenny Opera -- Chapter 3 Good Persons of Sichuan, Jiangnan, and Beijing: Brecht’s The Good Person of Szechwan and Chinese Xiqu Adaptations -- Chapter 4: Concentric Circles: Two Chuanju Reinterpretations of The Caucasian Chalk Circle as The Chalk Circle -- Chapter 5: Modernity, Chinese Culture, and Intertextuality: Bertolt Brecht’s Turandot and Wei Minglun’s Chuanju Play Chinese Princess Dulanduo -- Chapter 6: Brecht and Mao Zedong: Two Sides of “The Other Side” and “Twice Removed” Vision of “Snow” -- Chapter 7: Conclusion. This book examines the two-way impacts between Brecht and Chinese culture and drama/theatre, focusing on Chinese theatrical productions since the end of the Cultural Revolution all the way to the first decades of the twenty-first century. Wei Zhang considers how Brecht’s plays have been adapted/appropriated by Chinese theatre artists to speak to the sociopolitical, economic, and cultural developments in China and how such endeavors reflect and result from dynamic interactions between Chinese philosophy, ethics, and aesthetics, especially as embodied in traditional xiqu and the Brechtian concepts of estrangement (Verfremdungseffekt) and political theatre. In examining these Brecht adaptations, Zhang offers an interdisciplinary study that contributes to the fields of comparative drama/theatre studies, intercultural studies, and performance studies.

(In)complete Amputation: Body Integrity Identity Disorder and Maurice Blanchot. “This collection accomplishes the difficult work of situating the meanings of amputation in their historical contexts, within a gendered and sexual economy organized around shifting power relations. In this way, the book brings a sophisticated analysis rooted in disability studies to the examination of amputation as a signifier and as a material reality.” —Sarah E. Chinn, Hunter College, CUNY, USA Amputation in Literature and Film: Artificial Limbs, Prosthetic Relations, and the Semiotics of “Loss” explores the many ways in which literature and film have engaged with the subject of amputation. The scholars featured in this volume draw upon a wide variety of texts, both lesser-known and canonical, across historical periods and language traditions to interrogate the intersections of disability studies with social, political, cultural, and philosophical concerns. Whether focusing on ancient texts by Zhuangzi or Ovid, renaissance drama, folktales collected by the Brothers Grimm, novels or silent film, the chapters in this volume highlight the dialectics of “loss” and “gain” in narratives of amputation to encourage critical dialogue and forge an integrated, embodied understanding of experiences of impairment in which mind and body, metaphor and materiality, theory and politics are considered as interrelated and interacting aspects of disability and ability.

This textbook takes a new approach to teaching creative writing that centers the concerns of multicultural students. It focuses on the experiences of those who wish to write through their diverse identities, including ethnic, cultural, racial, national, regional, and international identity as well as gender identity, sexual preference, class position, and disability. Combining the study of culturally diverse literature with the process of writing, students are encouraged to engage with various texts and to use them to inspire their own work. Organized around a series of writing prompts and discussions of literary readings that address identity, place, perception, family, community, encounters, inheritance, and resistance, this book offers both writers and teachers a way to engage with the practice of writing from a multicultural perspective.

Kun Nan 困难: Difficulty and Clan in Literary Modernism: Faulkner’s The Sound and the Fury and Mo Yan’s Big Beasts & Wide Hips -- Afterword Fei Jian Dan 非简单: The Non-Simplicities of Culture: A Concluding Note. This book examines organizations of consumerist economics, which developed at the turn of the twentieth century in the West and at the turn of the twenty-first century in China, in relation to modernist poetics. Consumerist economics include the artificial “person” of the corporation, the vertical integration of production, and consumption based upon desire as well as necessity. This book assumes that poetics can be understood as a theory in practice of how a world works. Tracing the relation of economics to poetics, the book analyzes the impersonality of indirect discourse in Qian Zhongshu and James Joyce; the impressionist discourses of Mang Ke and Ezra Pound; and discursive difficulty in Mo Yan and William Faulkner. Bringing together two notably distinct cultures and traditions, this book allows us to comprehend modernism as a theory in practice of lived experience in cultures organized around consumption. Tiao Wang is Associate Professor of English Language and Literature at the School of Foreign Languages, Harbin Institute of Technology, China. She has published 23 articles, 9 of which are in English, focused on American and European modernism.

    Haiti, die erste Schwarze Republik, wurde zur Chiffre einer Aporie der Aufklärung. Denn die Haitianische Revolution (1804) wurde von der französischen Kolonialmacht vehement bekämpft: offenbarend, dass die Ideale von Freiheit, Gleichheit und Brüderlichkeit keineswegs für alle gemeint gewesen waren. Der Band widmet sich der Frage, wie in der Literatur vom 18. Jahrhundert bis heute Sklavenaufstände verhandelt werden. Im Sinne einer transatlantischen Romanistik und Germanistik richtet sich der Blick maßgeblich auf die Zirkulation und Transformation von Ideen zwischen Europa und der Karibik. Von französischsprachigen Literaturen ausgehend wird die Betrachtung komparatistisch geschärft: im geographischen Raum der (ehemaligen) Kolonien sowie im Vergleich Frankreichs mit den deutschsprachigen Nachbarländern.

    Chapter 1: Introduction: The Successors to Sherlock Holmes -- Chapter 2: Detectives Doctor Clifford Halifax and Norman Head, by L.T. Meade -- Chapter 3: Detective Loveday Brooke, by C.L. Pirkis -- Chapter 4: Detectives Martin Hewitt and Horace Dorrington, by Arthur Morrison -- Chapter 5: Detective Hagar Stanley, by Fergus Hume -- Chapter 6: Detective the Honourable Augustus Champnell, by Richard Marsh -- Chapter 7: Detective Flaxman Low, by Kate Prichard and Hesketh Vernon Hesketh-Prichard -- Conclusion. “In this brilliant, incisive study of late Victorian detective fiction, Clarke emphatically shows us there is life beyond Sherlock Holmes. Rich in contextual detail and with her customary eye for the intricacies of publishing history, Clarke’s wonderfully accessible book brings to the fore a collection of hitherto neglected writers simultaneously made possible but pushed to the margins by Conan Doyle’s most famous creation.” — Andrew Pepper, Senior Lecturer in English and American Literature, Queen’s University, Belfast, UK “Clarke’s path-breaking book is required reading for anyone interested in Victorian crime and detective fiction.” — Alexis Easley, Professor of English, University of St.Paul, Minnesota, USA This book examines the developments in British serial detective fiction which took place in the seven years when Sherlock Holmes was dead. In December 1893, at the height of Sherlock’s popularity with the Strand Magazine’s worldwide readership, Arthur Conan Doyle killed off his detective. At the time, he firmly believed that Holmes would not be resurrected. This book introduces and showcases a range of Sherlock’s most fascinating successors, exploring the ways in which a huge range of popular magazines and newspapers clamoured to ensnare Sherlock’s bereft fans. The book’s case-study format examines a range of detective series-- created by L.T. Meade; C.L. Pirkis; Arthur Morrison; Fergus Hume; Richard Marsh; Kate and Vernon Hesketh-Prichard— that filled the pages of a variety of periodicals, from plush monthly magazines to cheap newspapers, in the years while Sherlock was dead. Readers will be introduced to an array of detectives—professional and amateur, male and female, old and young; among them a pawn-shop worker, a scientist, a British aristocrat, a ghost-hunter. The study of these series shows that there was life after Sherlock and proves that there is much to learn about the development of the detective genre from the successors to Sherlock Holmes. Clare Clarke is Assistant Professor of English at Trinity College Dublin, Ireland. Her first book, Late-Victorian Crime Fiction in the Shadows of Sherlock (2014), was awarded the H.R.F. Keating Prize in 2015. .

    1. Autobiographical Introduction -- Chapter 2. Bibliographical History of a Genre -- Chapter 3. Ballad, Texts, Tunes, Material Culture -- Chapter 4. Companion Genres: From Ballad to Chapbook -- Chapter 5. Intervention 1: Initiating Genres: Addison’s Ballad Criticism and Its Parody -- Chapter 6. From Ballad to Tragedy: Processes of Generic Conversion in The London Merchant -- Chapter 7. Generic Combinations and Recombinations: Revising, Editing, Collecting, Anthologizing -- Chapter 8. Tragedy to Novel: Genre and Value -- Chapter 9. Intervention 2: Problems of Generic Transformation -- Chapter 10. Undermining a Genre: Parody, Value Reversal, Counter-Genre -- Chapter 11. From False History to Historical Novel -- Chapter 12. Ballad Criticism, Genre Theory, and the Dismantling of Rhetoric -- Chapter 13. The Regeneration of Genre -- 14. Barnwell Bibliographies. The aim of this book is to orchestrate “a generic reconstitution of literary studies” based on a comprehensive theory of genre and generic transformation. Taking “An Excellent Ballad of George Barnwel,” a seventeenth-century broadside of sex and greed, Ralph Cohen analyzes the generic transformations—including Addison’s ballad criticism in The Spectator, The London Merchant, Percy’s ballad editing in Reliques, and Barnwell. A Novel—in which this particular ballad exhibits remarkable continuity over the next four centuries, culminating with his personal re-formation; what was considered non-literary criticism becomes literary. This unique literary history reconceives narrative as a component of genre rather than a genre itself, demonstrates the ineluctably mixed nature of genres and the literary nature of our humanness, and analyzes the shifting generic contexts for interpretation and gender relations. Incorporating theory consciousness into the literary genre he is regenerating, Cohen offers a brilliant example of how future literary histories might be written.

    1 Introduction -- 2 Disability and Embodiment -- 3 Blindness and Perception -- 4 Blackness and Visibility -- 5 Gayness and Invisibility. This book explores how phenomenological ideas about embodiment, perception, and lived experience are discussed within disability studies, critical race theory, and queer studies. Building on these disciplines, it offers readings of memoirs and novels that address the consequences of stigmatization and the bodily dimensions of social differences. The texts include Robert F. Murphy’s The Body Silent, Simi Linton’s My Body Politic, Rod Michalko’s The Two-in-One: Walking with Smokie, Walking with Blindness, three memoirs by Stephen Kuusisto, Vincent O. Carter’s The Bern Book, as well as two novels, Matthew Griffin’s Hide and Armistead Maupin’s Maybe the Moon. All of the texts discussed in this book negotiate the significance of bodily and perceptual habits, the influence of language and culture on embodiment, the importance of relationality and community, the severe effects of misrecognition, and the possibilities of emancipation and social recognition. Hence, they are read as pioneering contributions to the emerging field of critical phenomenology. Simon Dickel is Professor of Gender and Diversity Studies at Folkwang University of the Arts in Essen, Germany. He is the author of Black/Gay: The Harlem Renaissance, the Protest Era, and Constructions of Black Gay Identity in the 1980s and 90s (2011).

    1 A Circuitous Way of Making Sense of the World -- Part One: Scripting the Itinerary -- 2 Describing a Circumference: Jules’s Verne’s Guidebook for the Modern World -- 3 The Portable Printing Press: Jules Verne as World Literature -- Part Two: Committing Circumnavigation to Print -- 4 The New York World and the Cosmopolitan: Print Nationalism, Circumnavigation, and the Literary Imagination -- 5 Playing Nellie Bly: On the Travel Writing of an American Girl -- 6 The Other Direction: Elizabeth Bisland’s Guide to Cosmopolitan Composition -- Part Three: The Modernist World Stage -- 7 Jean Cocteau’s Around-the-World Performance: Notes on Sensation -- 8 A Modernist Theatrum Mundi: Orson Welles and the Theater of Attractions -- 9 Verne in the American Century: Circumnavigation as a Foreign Policy. This book shows how Jules Verne’s Around the World in Eighty Days changed the global imagination. Through his novel, the world was converted into a personal itinerary, scaled to the individual traveller and, by extension, to the individual reader. Exploring Verne’s modern legacy, this study shows how subsequent generations of artists and writers took on Around the World in Eighty Days as an adaptable guidebook to the modern world. It investigates how Verne’s work leads its reader beyond the book itself. It considers Verne’s place in world literature, traces some of the many real reenactments of Verne’s itinerary, and recalls the theatrical adaptations of Verne’s story. Published to coincide with the 500th anniversary of the first circumnavigation and the 150th anniversary of Verne’s novel, this book offers new insights into the largely overlooked influence of Verne on twentieth-century literature and culture and on the field of global modernism. Kevin Riordan is Assistant Professor in the School of Humanities at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore.

J. Enright’s Poetry, Aaron Deveson -- Chapter 6 De-Provincializing Liolà: Pirandello, Futurism, and Dialectics in Gramsci’s Cultural Writings, Jennifer Kang -- Chapter 7 Statelessness as Utopia: B. Traven and the Anarchist Novel, Nathaniel Cadle -- Part 3: Emplacement in Language -- Chapter 8 Island of Words, Nigel Wheale -- Chapter 9 “Earthquakes or Earthmovers”: Los Angeles’ Eastside Barrio and Helena María Viramontes’ Their Dogs Came With Them, Cristina Rodriguez -- Chapter 10 “A House with Many Rooms”: The Long Way Home in Dinaw Mengestu’s All Our Names, Laura Savu Walker -- Chapter 11 The Invisible City of the Creole Caribbean, Allyson Ferrante -- Chapter 12 Disarticulated Forms of Subjectivity and Place in Philip Roth’s The Anatomy Lesson, Iven Heister. Rethinking Place Through Literary Form regards the relationship between place and linguistic form as challenging real and perceived configurations of place and renegotiating geopolitically determined categories of the ‘centre’ and ‘periphery’. The volume argues that the rise of scattered communities, displaced physically and psychologically by urban and alienated geographies, necessitates linguistic negotiations of one’s locatedness in place as the chief means of uncovering and re-building identity. By looking at narrative re-imaginings of forgotten and interrupted intimacies between habitation and place from diverse parts of the world, the twelve chapters address the growing need to expand and alter approaches to literary representations of modernity and modes of self-location. Rupsa Banerjee is Assistant Professor of English at St. Xavier's University, Kolkata, India. Nathaniel Cadle is Associate Professor of English at Florida International University, USA. His first book, The Mediating Nation: Late American Realism, Globalization, and the Progressive State (2014), won the 2015 SAMLA Studies Book Award. .

    1 Introduction: Mapping the Transatlantic Supernatural Story -- 2 Machado de Assis and the Doors of Fiction -- 3 Henry James, from Ghost Stories to Ghost Texts -- 4 Guy de Maupassant: Doubt, Dogma, and the Dead -- 5 Conclusion: The Metaliterary Supernatural Story. This book proposes a comparative approach to the supernatural short stories of Machado de Assis, Henry James and Guy de Maupassant. It offers an alternative to predominantly novel-centric and Anglo-centric perspectives on literary pre-modernism by investigating a transnational and multilingual connection between genre, theme and theory, i.e., between the modern short story, the supernatural and the problem of knowledge. Incorporating a close analysis of the literary texts into a discussion of their historical context, the book argues that Machado, James and Maupassant explore and reinvent the supernatural short story as a metafictional genre. This modernized and innovative form allows them to challenge the dichotomies and conventions of realist and supernatural fiction, inviting their past and present readers to question common assumptions on reality and literary representation. Amândio Reis is a Research Fellow and member of the Centre for Comparative Studies at the University of Lisbon, Portugal. He is the editor-in-chief of Compendium: Journal of Comparative Studies. He has taught comparative literature, Romantic poetry and painting, and contemporary and late nineteenth-century short fiction. His work is mostly focused on narrative theory, comparative literature, and interarts studies, with a special focus on the late nineteenth century and transatlantic modernisms.

Kontroversen und Kontexte im Frankreich der Frühen Neuzeit -- Die Präsenz der kolonialen Dingwelt in der spanischen Literatur des 18. Jahrhunderts – Das Beispiel der Schokolade -- Die Performanz der Dinge in sentimentalen Wirtschaftskomödien der spanischen Spätaufklärung. Allenthalben werden in der Literatur der Frühen Neuzeit Dinge getauscht, verschenkt oder geraubt. Jenseits ihres ‚Eigensinns‘ haben sie die Funktion, Figuren zu charakterisieren, die Handlung in Bewegung zu setzen oder zwischen unterschiedlichen Interessen zu vermitteln. Trotz ihrer Bedeutung für die ‚Ökonomie der Literatur‘ sind indes die Dinge – anders als Subjekte oder Modalitäten des Handelns – von den Literaturwissenschaften kaum untersucht worden. Der vorliegende Band widmet sich daher der ‚materiellen Kultur‘ der romanischen Literaturen von der Renaissance bis zum 18. Jahrhundert.

Representations of Beer in the Middle Ages: Beer Culture and Medievalisms is a cross-cultural analysis of the role that alcohol consumption played in literature, social and cultural history, and gender roles in the Middle Ages. The volume also seeks to correct or offer new insights into historical beer production. By drawing on the expertise of scholars of history, archaeology, Old and Middle English, Old Norse, and Medieval and Early Modern literature, the book produces a sustained discussion of how beer and alcohol consumption in the Middle Ages directly contributes to the romanticized vision of the medieval ale-hall omnipresent in beer marketing today. The essays describe alcohol consumption in the Middle Ages across much of Northern Europe, engage with the various myths employed in modern craft beer advertising and beer production, and examines how gender intersects with beer production and consumption. The editors also raise certain critical questions about medievalisms which need to be interrogated, particularly in light of the continued use of the Middle Ages for white supremacist and colonialist ideals. The volume contributes to the study of the popular and historical understandings of the Middle Ages as well the issues of race and gender. John A. Geck is Assistant Professor in the Department of English at the Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada, where his research deals with transmissions of high and low culture in later medieval and early modern England, encompassing romance, hagiography, and drama; medievalisms and other projections of the medieval in popular and digital culture. Rosemary O’Neill is Associate Professor of English and Women’s and Gender Studies at Kenyon College, USA. Her research explores the intersection of economics and medieval literature, and she has published and forthcoming work on Langland; Chaucer; the figure of Judas in medieval drama and poetry; and the resonances of medieval poetry in contemporary literature. Noelle Phillips is English Instructor at Douglas College, Canada. Her research engages in medieval book history, the work of Chaucer and Langland, the book collecting habits of the Earls of Northumberland, and most recently, the use of medievalism in marketing craft beer and breweries. Her recent book, Craft Beer Culture and Modern Medievalism: Brewing Dissent (2019) explores the stories and mythologies inherent to modern craft brewing. .
