Terrorism has long been a major shaping force in the world.
However, the meanings of terrorism, as a word and as a set of
actions, are intensely contested. This volume explores how
literature has dealt with terrorism from the Renaissance to today,
inviting the reader to make connections between older instances of
terrorism and contemporary ones, and to see how the various
literary treatments of terrorism draw on each other. The essays
demonstrate that the debates around terrorism only give the fictive
imagination more room, and that fiction has a great deal to offer
in terms of both understanding terrorism and our responses to it.
Written by historians and literary critics, the essays provide
essential knowledge to understand terrorism in its full complexity.
As befitting a global problem, this book brings together a truly
international group of scholars, with representatives from America,
Scotland, Canada, New Zealand, Italy, Israel, and other countries.
