    Enables a reckoning with the legacy of the Forgotten War through literary and cinematic works of cultural memory. Though often considered "the forgotten war," lost between the end of World War II and the start of the Cold War, the Korean War was, as Daniel Y. Kim argues, a watershed event that fundamentally reshaped both domestic conceptions of race and the interracial dimensions of the global empire that the United States would go on to establish. He uncovers a trail of cultural artefacts that speaks to the trauma experienced by civilians during the conflict but also evokes an expansive web of complicity in the suffering that they endured.Taking up a range of American popular media from the 1950s, Kim offers a portrait of the Korean War as it looked to Americans while they were experiencing it in real time. Kim expands this archive to read a robust host of fiction from US writers like Susan Choi, Rolando Hinojosa, Toni Morrison, and Chang-rae Lee, and the Korean author Hwang Sok-yong. The multiple and ongoing historical trajectories presented in these works testify to the resurgent afterlife of this event in US cultural memory, and of its lasting impact on multiple racialized populations, both within the US and in Korea. The Intimacies of Conflict offers a robust, multifaceted, and multidisciplinary analysis of the pivotal-but often unacknowledged-consequences of the Korean War in both domestic and transnational histories of race

    US-Caribbean diaspora literatures of the 2000s constitute social spaces as spaces of diaspora. This volume looks at the literary production of space in works by Ernesto Quiñónez, Achy Obejas, Edwidge Danticat, and Junot Díaz to identify how these literatures perform the complex task of positioning themselves, their writers, and their ethnic communities between the US and the Caribbean, and between de- and reterritorialization US-karibische Diasporaliteraturen der 2000er-Jahre konstituieren soziale Räume als Diasporaräume. An den literarischen Raumproduktionen in Werken von Ernesto Quiñónez, Achy Obejas, Edwidge Danticat und Junot Díaz lässt sich erkennen, so eine zentrale These, wie diese Literaturen im Spagat sich selbst, ihre Verfasserinnen und Verfasser sowie ihre ethnischen Gemeinschaften zwischen den USA und der Karibik verorten. Texte wie Bodega Dreams, Days of Awe, The Dew Breaker und The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao positionieren sich über ihre Erzählräume und erzählten Räume, ihre Raumsemantik und ihre Intertextualität im Spannungsfeld von De- und Reterritorialisierung. Sie setzen sich mit der Geschichte ihrer karibischen «Herkunftsländer» (Puerto Rico, Kuba, Haiti, Dominikanische Republik) und ihrer ethnischen Gruppen in den USA auseinander. Sie verhandeln, wie diese Geschichte aus der Perspektive der Postmemoria-Generation aufzuarbeiten ist, wie diese Perspektive das «Ursprungsland» erst als erlebt-erlittenen Raum produziert und in welchem Verhältnis im Heimatland verbliebene und in der Diaspora lebende Subjekte zueinanderstehen. Die Studie erarbeitet entlang der Leitkategorien von De- und Reterritorialisierung und in Verbindung mit Henri Lefebvres phänomenologischem Raumbegriff, Erkenntnissen aus Diaspora-, Intersektionalitäts-, Kolonialitäts- und Erzählforschung einen ausdifferenzierten und vielfach anschlussfähigen theoretischen Zugang zu postkolonialen literarischen Räumen. Durch ihre kulturwissenschaftliche Fundierung in einer plurilingualen Karibikforschung und gleichzeitig romanistische Ausrichtung eröffnet die Monographie neue Perspektiven auf das Phänomen der zeitgenössischen hispanokaribischen und haitianischen ethnischen Literaturen in der USA
