Descripción
Sumario:"Transnationalism" has become a key term reflecting concern with today's unprecedented flows of commodities, fashions, ideas, and people across national borders. Literature has always been a means of border crossing and transgression, and it is also becoming more and more a "moving medium" that creates a transnational space by circulating around the world, both reflecting on the reality of transnationalism and participating in it. This volume refines our understanding of transnationalism both as a contemporary reality and as a concept and an analytical tool --
Notas:"The foundation for this volume was laid at a three-day-long seminar workshop entitled "Transnationalisms: Sexualities, Fantasies, and the World Beyond" that took place at the Thirty-Seventh Annual Conference of the German Studies Association in Denver, Colorado, October 3-6, 2013. Scholars from the United States, Canada, and Europe working in different fields and disciplines came together to debate fundamental questions regarding the form, concerns, and impact of German-language transnational literature today."--Acknowledgments
