This collection pushes migration and "the minor" to the fore of
literary anthropology. What happens when authors who thematize
their "minority" background articulate notions of belonging, self,
and society in literature? The contributors use "interface
ethnography" and "fieldwork on foot" to analyze a broad selection
of literature and processes of dialogic engagement. The chapters
discuss German-speaking Herta Muller's perpetual minority status in
Romania; Bengali-Scottish Bashabi Fraser and the potentiality of
poetry; vagrant pastoralism and "heritagization" in Puglia, Italy;
the self-representation of European Muslims post 9/11 in Zeshan
Shakar's acclaimed Norwegian novel; the autobiographical narratives
of Loveleen Rihel Brenna and the artist collective Queendom in
Norway; the "immigrant" as a permanent guest in Spanish-language
children's literature; and Slovenian roots-searching in Argentina.
This anthology examines the generative and transformative
potentials of storytelling, while illustrating that literary
anthropology is well equipped to examine the multiple contexts that
literature engages. Chapter 4 of this book is available open access
under a CC By 4.0 license at link.springer.com.
