Constructing Identity in Iranian-American Self-Narrative de M. Blaim

Constructing Identity in Iranian-American Self-Narrative

Autor M. Blaim, Kenneth A. Loparo
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 11 feb 2015
Shaped by the experiences of the Iranian Revolution, Iranian-American autobiographers use this chaotic past to tell their current stories in the United States. Wagenknecht analyzes a wide range of such writing and draws new conclusions about migration, exile, and life between different and often clashing cultures.

Recenzii

“Constructing Identity in Iranian-American Self-Narrative is an important work concerned with the ‘performance of identity’ … . It speaks to an increasing appetite for scholarship that captures the parallel growth in minority literature with transnational echoes. Members of the academic community and the public will find it useful in offering an account of an Iranian American complicated sense of agency in a globe fraught with reductions and over-simplifications.” (Waleed F. Mahdi, European Journal of American Culture, Vol. 36 (3), September, 2017)
