The Global South Atlantic
Autor Kerry Bystrom, Joseph R. Slaughter, Luis Felipe Alencastro, Jaime Hanneken, Jason Frydmanen Limba Engleză Paperback – 27 noi 2017
The Global South Atlantic traces literary exchanges and interlaced networks of communication and investment--financial, political, socio-cultural, libidinal--across and around the southern ocean. Bringing together scholars working in a range of languages, from Spanish to Arabic, the book shows the range of ways people, governments, political movements, social imaginaries, cultural artefacts, goods, and markets cross the South Atlantic, or sometimes fail to cross. As a region made up of multiple intersecting regions, and as a vision made up of complementary and competing visions, the South Atlantic can only be understood comparatively. Exploring the Atlantic as an effect of structures of power and knowledge that issue from the Global South as much as from Europe and North America, The Global South Atlantic helps to rebalance global literary studies by making visible a multi-textured South Atlantic system that is neither singular nor stable.
