Emerging Aesthetic Imaginaries considers aesthetic imaginaries as
they constitute and are constituted by and in our shared realities.
With contributions from twelve scholars working in the fields of
literary studies, visual studies, anthropology, cultural studies,
and digital culture, this book takes a multidisciplinary approach
to "aesthetic imaginaries," which tests the conceptual potential
from an array of perspectives and methodologies. It probes into the
continuous creation and re-creation of figures for the future that
invariably nod to their pasts, whether with a spirit of respect,
disgust, hope, or play. It is particularly in the intersections
between ideas and formations of "shared realities" and what Ranjan
Ghosh has called "entangled figurations" that the full and
intricate promise of the aesthetic imaginary as analytic and
conceptual prism comes into its own. As the chapters in this
collection demonstrate, "knots" of various aesthetic imaginaries
disseminate and manifest variously across place and time, to weave
and interweave again, and to offer themselves in each instance as
contours-so-far of cultural and aesthetic histories.
