This volume approaches literary representations of post and neocolonialism by combining their readings with respective theoretical configurations. The aim is to cast light upon common characteristics of contemporary texts from around the world that deal with processes of colonization. Based on the epistemic discourses of postimperialism/postcolonialism, globalization, and world literature, the volume’s chapters bring together international scholars from various disciplines in the Humanities, including Comparative Cultural Studies, Slavic, Romance, German, and African Studies. The main concern of the contributions is to conceptualize an autonomous category of a world literature of the colonial, going well beyond established classifications according to single languages or center-periphery dichotomies. Target Groups Lecturers and students of English, Slavic and German Philologies as well as Comparative Literature Specialists in Comparative and Cultural Studies, Postcolonial Studies and World Literature Studies Contents Literary History of the Colonial World Literature and Postcolonialism African Literatures and Afropolitanism Literary Traffic Transculturality The Editor Elke Sturm-Trigonakis is Professor of Comparative Literature at the Aristotle University in Thessaloniki/Greece and author of monographs and volumes concerning the concept of new Weltliteratur. Her research interests include (multilingual) world literature, postcolonialism, the picaresque novel, urban and crime fiction, and knowledge systems in the Humanities.
