Rooting its analysis in modern Europe and the Caribbean, it recognises that monolingualism, not multilingualism, is a historical and global rarity, and argues that this fact must inform our study of the novel, even when it remains notionally Anglophone. Drawing principally upon four authors – Joseph Conrad, Jean Rhys, Wilson Harris and Junot Díaz – this study argues that a close engagement with the novel reveals a series of ways to apprehend, depict and theorise various kinds of language diversity. In so doing, it reveals the presence of the multilingual as a powerful shaping force for the direction of the novel from 1900 to the present day which cuts across and complicates current understandings of modernist, postcolonial and global literatures. | | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | | 关键词 | Modernism; Linguistics; Colonialism; Postcolonialism; Empire; Joseph Conrad; Jean Rhys; Wilson Harris; Junot | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-05810-4 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-05810-4Series 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 |
