The volume asks how the literatures of the Americas and the
Caribbean present multiple or internally differentiated spaces and
how these are distinguished or traversed by different
temporalities. The historical and (post)colonial experiences of
these areas turns them into especially fertile ground for the
exploration of the connections between landscape/geography and
historical/temporal palimpsests as well as the specificities of
literary form. The contributions are dedicated to individual, yet
conceptually interconnected studies of staggered, multiple,
non-simultaneous temporalities in modern and contemporary
literature. The volume adopts a comparative perspective throughout
and intends to foster the dialogue between the study of
Latin/American and Caribbean literatures-in Spanish, Portuguese,
French, and English. Therefore, the individual essays are not
grouped according to geographical or linguistic areas, but follow a
trajectory from spatiotemporal constellations of the 19th century
to ruined/catastrophic landscapes and the geopoetic inscriptions of
time in regions. The essays should appeal to all readers interested
in World Literature, Hemispheric Studies as well as temporal
approaches to space and geography.
