Writing and Race brings together specially commissioned essays by
new and established authors from a range of disciplines. Texts are
drawn from subjects and genres that include philosophy, politics,
anthropology, sexuality, travel, fiction and autobiography. Through
a time-span from Ancient Greece to the present day, and a
geographical coverage from Australia and Europe to the Caribbean
and the United States, the collection investigates the importance
of place, moment, cultural formation and subject identity in racial
representation. A substantial introduction establishes the
connections between the essays and lucidly summarizes recent
thinking on race, explaining in particular the relevance of debates
about ethnography. Accessible and stimulating, Writing and Race is
a multidisciplinary collection that will be of interest to
students, researchers, and lecturers who study or are interested in
race. The essays represent a variety of critical approaches, thus
allowing the reader to compare and contrast the benefits of each
approach. Extracts of some of the texts that are discussed are
included along with an extensive bibliography to encourage further
study.
