Crossing Cultural Boundaries in East Asia and Beyond de Reiko Maekawa

Crossing Cultural Boundaries in East Asia and Beyond: East and West, cartea 10

Editat de Reiko Maekawa, Darwin Stapleton, Roberta Wollons
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 24 feb 2021

Crossing Cultural Boundaries in East Asia and Beyond explores the personal complexities and ambiguities, and the successes and failures, of crossing borders and boundaries. While the focus is on East Asia, it universalizes cultural anxieties with comparative cases in Russia and the United States. The authors primarily engage the individual experiences of border-crossing, rather than more typically those of political or social groups located at territorial boundaries. Drawing on those individual experiences, this volume presents an array of attempts to negotiate the discomforts of crossing personal borders, and attends to the intimate experiences of border crossers, whether they are traveling to an unfamiliar cultural location or encountering the “other” in local settings such as the classroom or the coffee shop.
