This volume intervenes in this broad discussion of singularity and its various implications, proposing to explore the term for its specific potential in the study of literature. Singularity and Transnational Poetics brings together scholars working in the fields of literary and cultural studies, translation studies, and transnational literatures. The volume's central concern is to explore singularity as a conceptual tool for the comparative study of contemporary literatures beyond national frameworks, and by implication, as a tool to analyze human existence. Contributors explore how singularity might move our conceptions of cultural identity from prevailing frameworks of self/other toward the premises of being as 'singular plural'. Through a close reading of transnational literatures from Ireland, Germany, the Netherlands, France, and South Africa, this collection offers a new approach to reading literature that will challenge a reader's established notions of identity, individuality, communicability, and social cohesion"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a Poetics. 650 0 $a Transnationalism in literature. 650 0 $a Identity (Philosophical concept) in literature. 650 7 $a LITERARY CRITICISM / Semiotics & Theory. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a LITERARY CRITICISM / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Identity (Philosophical concept) in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00966891 650 7 $a Poetics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01067682 650 7 $a Transnationalism in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01904970 650 7 $a Literatur. $0 (DE-588)4035964-5 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Einzigkeit. $0 (DE-588)4418583-2 $2 gnd 650 7 $a InterkulturalitaÌt. $0 (DE-588)4519498-1 $2 gnd 650 7 $a UÌbersetzung. $0 (DE-588)4061418-9 $2 gnd 700 1 $a Kaiser, Birgit Mara, $e editor. 830 0 $a Routledge interdisciplinary perspectives on literature ; $v 32. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231018011755.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826104526.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9184E70C246D11E5A97E42B6DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
