By placing these two seas side by side, this book challenges conventional distinctions between them and highlights their many shared traits and connections, suggesting new ways to understand the economic, political, and environmental challenges both regions face today. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile examining the cultural productions that emerge from the Mediterranean and Caribbean, modern languages scholars Jessica R. Boll, Marilén Loyola, and Sharon Meilahn Bartlett adopt a decentralized approach that moves beyond the influence of the United States and Europe. They further challenge traditional narratives by centering the experiences of individuals from historically repressed groups. Through analyses of visual art, puppet shows, songs, graphic fiction, and television, this volume shifts the focus away from the canonical to foreground accessible and popular forms of expression. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy highlighting these places, perspectives, and productions, \u003cem\u003eSea Change\u003c\/em\u003e underscores the reciprocal influence between the mainstream and the marginalized. It strives to dismantle (post)colonial hegemonies and demonstrate that those often relegated to the periphery can be agents - rather than mere subjects - of change.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sharon Bartlett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1487564368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781487564360\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Toronto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.13lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.00d","brand":"Sharon Bartlett","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47304735097087,"sku":"9781487564360","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dfa0f5ea-3d98-4b56-a944-6904d9a1aff7.jpg?v=1758829003","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sea-change-sharon-bartlett-9781487564360","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
