The Cambridge Companion to Global Literature and Slavery reveals
the way recent scholarship in the field of slavery studies has
taken a more expansive turn, in terms of both the geographical and
the temporal. These new studies perform area studies-driven
analyses of the representation of slavery from national or regional
literary traditions that are not always considered by scholars of
slavery and explore the diverse range of unfreedoms depicted
therein. Literary scholars of China, Central Asia, the Middle East,
and Africa provide original scholarly arguments about some of the
most trenchant themes that arise in the literatures of slavery -
authentication and legitimation, ethnic formation and
globalization, displacement, exile, and alienation, representation
and metaphorization, and resistance and liberation. This Cambridge
Companion to Global Literature and Slavery is designed to highlight
the shifting terrain in literary studies of slavery and
collectively challenge the reductive notion of what constitutes
slavery and its representation.
