With this volume, the editors Katharina Edtstadler, Sandra Folie,
and Gianna Zocco propose an extension of the traditional conception
of imagology as a theory and method for studying the cultural
construction and literary representation of national, usually
European characters. Consisting of an instructive introduction and
21 articles, the book relates this sub-field of comparative
literature to contemporary political developments and enriches it
with new interdisciplinary, transnational, intersectional, and
intermedial perspectives. The contributions offer [1] a
reconsideration and update of the field's methods, genres, and
theoretical frames; [2] trans-/post-national, migratory, and
marginalized perspectives beyond the European nation-state; [3]
insights into geopolitical dichotomies such as Orient/Occident; [4]
intersectional approaches considering the entanglements of national
images with notions of age, class, gender, sexuality, and
ethnicity/race; [5] investigations of the role of national images
in visual narratives and music.
