Beschreibung

Prominent scholars in literary and cultural studies, anthropology,
sociology, linguistics, media studies, theatre production, and translation
challenge the centre-periphery dichotomy used as a paradigm for relations
between colonizers and their erstwhile subjects in this collection of
critical interventions.

Focussing on India and its diaspora(s) in western industrialized nations
and former British colonies, this volume engages with topics of centrality
and/or peripherality, particularly in the context of Anglophone Indian
writing; the Indian languages; Indian film as art and popular culture;
cross-cultural Shakespeare; diasporic pedagogy; and transcultural
identity.
