Thursdays with Leila
Author: Corín Tellado
Publisher: MHRA
ISBN: 1781882444
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 104
Book Description
Thursdays with Leila exemplifies the slapdash style and narrative verve, piety and subversion, timeless myth and topicality that made Corín Tellado the queen of the Spanish romance. Of a later generation than Britain’s Barbara Cartland or France’s Delly, she, like them, nevertheless wrote in a society tensed between the inexorable development of modernity and a deep-rooted social conservatism.

European Peripheries in the Postcolonial Literary Imagination
Author: Janine Hauthal
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040152171
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
This book explores the meanings of European peripheries in postcolonial literary imagination. While colonial discourses have constructed Europe as the centre, the continent is internally divided into centres and peripheries. Approaching the question of European peripherality in a variety of geographical and linguistic contexts and across national and diasporic literary traditions of postcolonial writing, the contributions in this volume attest to the entangled and relational character of the centre/periphery nexus. Acknowledging the unbalanced power structures between centres and peripheries, the volume sets out to challenge conventional ideas about peripheries and places European peripheral loci at the centre of postcolonial literary inquiry. The chapters in the volume draw on diverse theoretical and conceptual frameworks in order to address, among others, the link between peripherality and provincialism, the relations between intra-European and colonial peripheries, and the progressive potential of European peripheries as postcolonial spaces. The chapters in this book were originally published in the Journal of Postcolonial Writing.
