{"product_id":"contested-communities-kate-averis-9781839542244","title":"Contested Communities: Small, Minority and Minor Literatures in Europe","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe study of European literatures was once characterised by single-language, nation-bound enquiry, but in the context of globalisation the transnational and multi-lingual aspect of these literatures has come to the fore. The forces driving this change range from acknowledgement of ancestral and regional enclaves within nation states to migration between nation states, and from beyond Europe, giving rise to minority communities across the continent. This wide-ranging volume spans literatures from Galicia to Greenland, written in and between languages ranging from Basque, Welsh and Breton, to French, Italian and German, and in genres that include theatre, narrative prose and experimental poetry. By viewing Europe from its peripheries and investigating diversity both between and within European nations, the book presents small, minority and minor literatures as a continuum along which notions of community are constantly affirmed, contested and redefined.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKate Averis teaches European literatures at the Universidad de Antioquia, Colombia.
