This edited volume is the first to focus on how concepts of
citizenship diversify and stimulate the long-standing field of law
and literature, and vice versa. Building on existing research in
law and literature as well as literature and citizenship studies,
the collection approaches the triangular relationship between
citizenship, law and literature from a variety of disciplinary,
conceptual and political perspectives, with particular emphasis on
the performative aspect inherent in any type of social expression
and cultural artefact. The sixteen chapters in this volume present
literature as carrying multifarious, at times opposing energies and
impulses in relation to citizenship. These range from providing
discursive arenas for consolidating, challenging and re-negotiating
citizenship to directly interfering with or inspiring processes of
law-making and governance. The volume opens up new possibilities
for the scholarly understanding of citizenship along two axes:
Citizenship-as-Literature: Enacting Citizenship and
Citizenship-in-Literature: Conceptualising Citizenship.
