{"product_id":"passages-elizabeth-kovach-9781800083202","title":"Passages: Moving Beyond Liminality in the Study of Literature and Culture","description":"\u003cb\u003eAn interdisciplinary exploration of the concept of passages.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The study of literature and culture is marked by various distinct understandings of passages--as both phenomena and critical concepts. These include the anthropological notion of rites of passage, the shopping arcades (\u003ci\u003ePassagen\u003c\/i\u003e) theorized by Walter Benjamin, the Middle Passage of the Atlantic slave trade, present-day forms of migration and resettlement, and understandings of translation and adaptation. This book explores passages as contexts and processes within which liminal experiences and encounters are situated. Based on the premise that concepts travel through times, contexts, and discursive settings, the volume enables a meaningful exchange regarding passages across disciplinary, national, and linguistic boundaries. Contributions from senior scholars and early-career researchers whose work focuses on areas such as cultural memory, performativity, space, media, (cultural) translation, ecocriticism, gender, and race utilize specific understandings of passages and liminality, reflecting on their value and limits for their research.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elizabeth Kovach\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1800083203\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781800083202\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e UCL Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/03\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.94lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.29h x 6.38w x 0.94d","brand":"Elizabeth Kovach","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44131096920319,"sku":"9781800083202","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b1875901-33ed-4fc9-8fac-3d44f22dae2e.jpg?v=1687472989","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/passages-elizabeth-kovach-9781800083202","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
