Описание: Malaysian Chinese (Mahua) literature is marginalized on several fronts. Cheow Thia Chan demonstrates that Mahua authors` grasp of their marginality in the world-Chinese literary space has been the impetus for-rather than a barrier to-aesthetic inventiveness.

Описание: This book examines how ideas about place and space have been transformed in recent decades. It offers a unique understanding of the ways in which postcolonial writers have contested views of place as fixed and unchanging and are remapping conceptions of world geography, with chapters on cartography, botany and gardens, spice, ecologies, animals and zoos, and cities, as well as reference to the importance of archaeology and travel in such debates. Writers whose work receives detailed attention include Amitav Ghosh, Derek Walcott, Jamaica Kincaid, Salman Rushdie, Michael Ondaatje and Robert Kroetsch. Challenging both older colonial and more recent global constructions of place, the book argues for an environmental politics that is attentive to the concerns of disadvantaged peoples, animal rights and ecological issues. Its range and insights make it essential reading for anyone interested in the changing physical and human geography of the contemporary world.

Описание: What is often termed ‘Nordic Noir’ has dominated detective fiction, film and television internationally for over two decades now: from Stieg Larsson to The Killing, and from Miss Smilla’s Feeling for Snow to The Bridge, this genre is now firmly embedded as a global phenomenon. But what are the parameters of this genre, both historically and geographically? What is noirish and what is northern about Nordic noir? Divided into four sections – Gender and Sexuality, Space and Place, Politics and Crime, and Genre and Genealogy – Noir in the North challenges the traditional critical histories of noir by investigating how it functions transnationally beyond the geographical borders of Scandinavia. The essays in this book deepen our critical understanding of noir more generally by demonstrating, for example, Nordic noir’s connection to fin-de-siecle literatures and to mid-century interior design, and by investigating the function of the state in crime fiction. The foreword and coda by two internationally-bestselling writers of crime fiction in the north – Yrsa Sigur?ardottir and Gunnar Staalesen – speak to the social contract undertaken by writers of noir, while the interview with the renowned crime writer Val McDermid adds nuance to our understanding of what it is to write noir in the North.
