This book demonstrates the significance of transnationality for
studying and writing the lives of artists. While painters,
musicians and writers have long been cast as symbols of their
associated nations, recent research is increasingly drawing
attention to those aspects of their lives and works that resist or
challenge the national framework. The volume showcases different
ways of treating transnationality in life writing by and about
artists, investigating how the transnational can offer intriguing
new insights on artists who straddle different nations and
cultures. It further explores ways of adopting transnational
perspectives in artists' biographies in order to deal with
experiences of cultural otherness or international influences, and
analyses cross-cultural representations of artists in biography and
biofiction. Gathering together insights from biographers and
scholars with expertise in literature, music and the visual arts,
Transnational Perspectives on Artists' Lives opens up rich avenues
for researching transnationality in the cultural domain at large.
