Nicole Simek approaches the relationship between literature, theory, and public life through a specific site, the French Antillean islands of Guadeloupe and Martinique, and focuses on two mutually elucidating terms: hunger and irony. Reading these concepts together helps elucidate irony’s creative potential and limits. If hunger gives irony purchase by anchoring it in particular historical and material conditions, irony also gives a literature and politics of hunger a means for moving beyond a given situation, for pushing through the inertias of history and culture. | 出版日期 | Book 2016 | 关键词 | Martinique; Guadeloupe; postcolonial studies; Ethics; Hunger; Irony studies; Caribbean; cultural theory; cul | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1057/978-1-137-55882-4 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-349-71935-8 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-137-55882-4Series ISSN 2691-3011 Series E-ISSN 2634-5196 | issn_series | 2691-3011 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2016 |
