How can we talk about World Literature if we do not actually
examine the world as a whole? Research on World Literature commonly
focuses on the dynamics of a western center and a southern
periphery, ignoring the fact that numerous literary relationships
exist beyond these established constellations of thinking and
reading within the Global South. Re-Mapping World Literature
suggests a different approach that aims to investigate new
navigational tools that extend beyond the known poles and meridians
of current literary maps. Using the example of Latin American
literatures, this study provides innovative insights into the
literary modeling of shared historical experiences, epistemological
crosscurrents, and book market processes within the Global South
which thus far have received scant attention. The contributions to
this volume, from renowned scholars in the fields of World and
Latin American literatures, assess travelling aesthetics and
genres, processes of translation and circulation of literary works,
as well as the complex epistemological entanglements and shared
worldviews between Latin America, Africa and Asia. A timely book
that embraces highly innovative perspectives, it will be a
must-read for all scholars involved in the field of the global
dimensions of literature.
