This volume explores the rich, evolving body of contemporary
cultural practices that reflect on a European project of diversity,
new dynamics between and across cultures in Europe, and its
interactions with the world. There have been calls across Europe
for both traditional national identities and new forms of identity
and community, assertions of regionalized identity and declarations
of multiculturalism and multilingualism. These essays respond to
this critical moment by analyzing the literature of migration as a
(re)writing of European subjects. They ask fundamental questions
from a variety of theoretical and critical standpoints: How do
migrants write new identities into and against old national
(meta)narratives? How do they interrogate constructions of
identity? What kinds of literary experiments are emerging in this
unstable context, e.g. in the graphic novel and avant-garde film?
This collection makes a unique contribution to contemporary
European literary studies by taking an interdisciplinary,
transnational and comparative perspective, thereby addressing
readers from diverse disciplinary backgrounds and stimulating new
research on the ambitious writing and thinking taking place across
the borders of Europe today.
