Beschreibung:
This book reflects developments in the field of diasporic studies. The articles have been grouped into two sections. The first section focuses on the experiences of diasporic Africans; the second section broadens the radius of research and focuses on literary representations of the diaspora to include Asian Americans, Puerto Ricans and Anglo-Europeans. Similarly, a no less interesting aspect of this book is the many ways in which Paul Gilroy's ideas have been re-theorised and applied to a myriad of writings. Indeed, the articles attest to diaspora as an experience that can potentially - as it does - affect everyone, so that diaspora becomes a metonymic representation of the experience itself.
