By re-examining the proper noun for each of the selected notions, the contributors' common intent is to shed light on their polysemous nature and linguistic fluidity, in spite of the common tendency towards simplification and homogeneity imposed by hegemonic cultural paradigms. Along this line, the book explores the great divides between identity and otherness (or common or alien) in order to recover a sense of cultural identity which is at once polymorphous and polyphonic."-- $c Back cover. 505 00 $t The alien inside us: Nazi guilt processing in GuÌnter Grass and Uwe Timm / $r Gabriele Guerra. $t Hecklers, hackers, and hijackers: Don DeLillo's Cosmopolis and Thomas Pynchon's Bleeding edge / $r Paolo Simonetti -- $t American literary art and political theory: the case of Thomas Pynchon / $r George Shulman -- $t Don DeLillo, Paul Auster and the ambiguities of semantic shift / $r Ugo Rubeo -- $t Beur literature and identity: transmission, transgression, and polyphony / $r Veronic Algeri -- $t Identity definitions and literature of a Maghrebian-French in-between space / $r Charles Bonn -- $t Transmission, sea, identity: the many routes of Francophonie through texts by Malika Mokeddem, Amin Maalouf, EÌric-Emmanuel Schmitt, EÌdouard Glissant / $r Marina Geat -- $t Ships returning, ships adrift: identity and decolonization in a novel by AntoÌnio Lobo Antunes / $r Maria Caterina Pincherle -- $t The architecture of debt / $r RauÌl Antelo -- $t Offense, reparation and forgiveness: law, rights and justice / $r Marco Bouchard -- $t The remission of the world: forms of gift and forgiveness in European and Brazilian culture / $r Ettore Finazzi-AgroÌ -- $t Gift, forgiveness, condonation / $r Paul Gilbert -- $t "Guilt/debt and forgiveness" in the era of the financialization of life: lines of flight and overturnings (hesitation, intensity, relationality, gift) / $r Vittoria BorsoÌ -- $t Debt, guilt, cancellation: a dispositif of the new German identity after reunification / $r Mauro Ponzi -- $t Guilt and shipwreck: Christoph Schlingensief's Flying Dutchman in Manaus / $r Daniela Padularosa -- $t The alien as founder of identity: Martin Buber's invention of cultural Zionism / $r Bernd Witte -- $t The alien inside us: Nazi guilt processing in GuÌnter Grass and Uwe Timm / $r Gabriele Guerra. 650 0 $a Language and culture. 650 0 $a Semantics $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a Semantics (Philosophy) in literature. 650 0 $a Literature and society. 700 1 $a Finazzi-AgroÌ, Ettore, $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20190202012314.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=59D5BCBCF79311E8BA923B1497128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
