How does literature represent, challenge and help us understand our
experience of globalization? Taking literary globalization studies
beyond its traditional political focus, Literature and the
Experience of Globalization explores how writers from Shakespeare
through Goethe to Isak Dinesen, J.M. Coetzee, Amitav Ghosh and
Bruce Chatwin engage with the human dimensions of globalization.
Through a wide range of insightful close readings, Svend Erik
Larsen brings contemporary world literature approaches to bear on
cross-cultural experiences of migration and travel, translation,
memory, history and embodied knowledge. In doing so, this important
intervention demonstrates how literature becomes an essential site
for understanding the ways in which globalization has become an
integral part of everyday experience.
