Textul de pe ultima copertă

Refugees Genres is a timely, interdisciplinary and far-reaching exploration of a figure at once over-scripted and barely-legible: the contemporary refugee. An international assembly of scholars and critics conduct deep probes into the ways this figure – hyper-visible, politically weaponised, often patronised – emerges in comics and graphic novels, experimental films, modern performance and music, memoirs and literary fiction before, in termite fashion, perverting and restructuring those artistic forms to startling effect.
--S. S. Sandhu, Director of the Center for Experimental Humanities and Associate Professor of English and Social and Cultural Analysis, NYU
Rich and varied, the essays in Refugee Genres pull together refugee narratives from literature, film and the graphic arts, to make a series of bold interventions into this evolving field.
--Agnes Woolley, Lecturer in Transnational Literature and Migration Cultures, Birkbeck, University of London
