It analyses the work of three contemporary authors who write the Indian Ocean as a region and world—Amitav Ghosh, Abdulrazak Gurnah, and Lindsey Collen—alongside maritime-imperial precursor Joseph Conrad. If postcolonial literatures are sometimes read as national allegories, this book presents an account of a different and significant strand of postcolonial fiction whose geography, in contrast, is coastal and transoceanic. This work imaginatively links east Africa, south Asia and the Arab world via a network of south-south connections that precedes and survives European imperialism. The novels and stories provide a vivid, storied sense of place on both a local and an oceanic scale, and in so doing remap the world as having its centre in the ocean and the south. . | 出版日期 | Book 2021 | 关键词 | Novel; Literature and Postcolonial Studies; Literature and the Environment; East Asia; South Asia; Arab c | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-87116-1 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-87118-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-87116-1Series ISSN 2634-6095 Series E-ISSN 2634-6109 | issn_series | 2634-6095 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
