Migrant Cartographies Résumé

Migrant Cartographies: New Cultural and Literary Spaces in Post-Colonial Europe Sandra Ponzanesi

In recent years, Europe has had to constantly rethink and redefine its attitude toward new flows of immigrations. Issues of boundaries and identity have been integral to this reflection. Through a magnificent collection of essays, Migrant Cartographies examines both sites and conflicts and the way in which forms of belonging and identity have been reinvented. With careful analysis and exceptional insight, this volume explores the most recent literature on migration as seen from different European viewpoints. This book fills a conspicuous void in migration literature, as there are no comprehensive books on migrant literatures in Europe that address the full range of complexities of colonial legacies and linguistic productions.

Migrant Cartographies Avis

This long-awaited book rekindles conventional descriptions of migrant spaces and does so by engaging with all disciplines. Spaces, societies, literature, cinema, and many other fields and approaches find here a happy complementarity. This is a new and most welcomed reading of an eminently problematic and contemporary object. -- Charles Bonn, Universite Lyon
Finally, a book with sufficient imaginative sweep and critical sensibility to tap the spread and complexity of a multilateral European culture in the making. Carefully unraveling the tight threads that stitch together an inherited sense of 'home' and history, the authors reveal a series of unfinished narratives constantly translating the elsewhere into current immediacies and rendering the local, the assumed, and the habitual other-wise. -- Iain Chambers, Professor of Cultural and Postcolonial Studies at the Oriental University in Naples, Author of Culture After Humanism
