{"product_id":"transnational-culture-transnational-identity-maria-koundoura-9781848857636","title":"Transnational Culture, Transnational Identity: The Politics and Ethics of Global Culture Exchange","description":"Globalization, it seems, either holds the promise of new horizons and new worlds, or trammels local cultures and produces uniformity. Here, Maria Koundoura strikes a singular path between these divergent views and maps the full terrain of our contemporary culture landscape. Reading world literature and engaging with contemporary critical methodologies, she explores what she calls transnational visions of language and culture, and analyses the politics of identity, representation and cultural expression. She thus presents a history of the aesthetic of our moment in modernity, and situates that moment in the economics of the global culture market and the ethics of cultural translation. Offering a model for addressing key questions of contemporary culture, identity and globalization, this book will be invaluable for all those interested in cultural and postcolonial studies, diaspora and globalization studies, as well as world literature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Maria Koundoura\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1848857632\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781848857636\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/10\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.70w x 0.90d","brand":"Maria Koundoura","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43938987770111,"sku":"9781848857636","price":160.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_356b8679-f962-4664-a12a-38d9f3632a13.jpg?v=1681438831","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/transnational-culture-transnational-identity-maria-koundoura-9781848857636","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
