Traversed by masses of migrants and wracked by environmental and
economic change, the Mediterranean has come to connote crisis. In
this context, Critically Mediterranean asks how the theories and
methodologies of Mediterranean studies may be brought to bear upon
the modern and contemporary periods. Contributors explore how the
Mediterranean informs philosophy, phenomenology, the poetics of
time and space, and literary theory. Ranging from some of the
earliest twentieth-century material on the Mediterranean to Edmond
Amran El Maleh, Christoforos Savva, Orhan Pamuk, and Etel Adnan,
the essays ask how modern and contemporary Mediterraneans may be
deployed in political, cultural, artistic, and literary practice.
The critical Mediterranean that emerges is plural and
performative-a medium through which subjects may negotiate imagined
relations with the world around them. Vibrant and deeply
interdisciplinary, Critically Mediterranean offers timely
interventions for a sea in crisis.
