Over the past decade 'singularity' has been a prominent term in a
broad range of fields, ranging from philosophy to literary and
cultural studies to science and technology studies. This volume
intervenes in this broad discussion of singularity and its various
implications, proposing to explore the term for its specific
potential in the study of literature. Singularity and Transnational
Poetics brings together scholars working in the fields of literary
and cultural studies, translation studies, and transnational
literatures. The volume's central concern is to explore singularity
as a conceptual tool for the comparative study of contemporary
literatures beyond national frameworks, and by implication, as a
tool to analyze human existence. Contributors explore how
singularity might move our conceptions of cultural identity from
prevailing frameworks of self/other toward the premises of being as
'singular plural'. Through a close reading of transnational
literatures from Ireland, Germany, the Netherlands, France, and
South Africa, this collection offers a new approach to reading
literature that will challenge a reader's established notions of
identity, individuality, communicability, and social cohesion.
