Abstract:

This thesis engages with migration literature in Italian keeping at the centre of the analysis its dissemination. I argue that this approach offers new insights into the ways migration dialogues with contemporary Italian literature - and, more generally, with contemporary Italy - with a focus on the work of translingual authors writing in Italian. The aim of this research is not to engage critically with the body of texts written by migrant writers. Rather, it focuses on sites of dissemination of this production, analysing the aims, content, and outcomes of selected case studies from this pers

Abstract:

Spain underwent drastic social and political changes in the last decades of the twentieth century which also affected the nation’s patterns of emigration. Contemporary Spanish literature and film that portray these decades reflect the country’s fluctuating characteristics of migration. ¡Vente a Alemania, Pepe! (1971) by Pedro Lazaga, Coto vedado (1985) by Juan Goytisolo, El hijo del acordeonista (2003) by Bernardo Atxaga, and Yoyes (2000) by Helena Taberna demonstrate Spain’s migration trends during the last years of Franco’s dictatorship and the transition to democracy.

Il presente lavoro di tesi riguarda il concetto di “mondializzazione” (“worldling”) della letteratura americana, inteso come un’apertura della disciplina ad una dimensione planetaria. Si tratta quindi di prendere in considerazione il recentissimo dibattito sulla letteratura mondiale (“world literature”) ed il modo (o modi) in cui è possibile declinarlo nell’ambito dell’Americanistica, una disciplina che almeno negli ultimi vent’anni ha assunto una dimensione sempre più transnazionale. Infatti, tale approccio implica, almeno in parte, un ripensamento della genealogia della letteratura americana

Abstract:

This thesis uses the hostile reception of The Satanic Verses, the 'Rushdie Affair', as a paradigm for studying immigrant writing from the Indian Subcontinent today. Looking at a selection of authors who specifically write on topics of migration, travel and migrant communities in the West, it considers the political implications of texts that represent marginalised immigrant communities, and inevitably offer them to the gaze of a mainstream readership, thus entering a peculiar power relationship.

Abstract:

The aim of this thesis is to explore the importance of "performativity" as a central thematic and aesthetic category in German-Turkish migrant literature and cinema through three works from different periods: Haldun Taner's Hexenzauber (1980), Emine Sevgi Özdamar's Mutter Zunge (1990) and Kutluğ Ataman's film Lola und Bilidikid (1999). I argue that the concern with performance in these works functions, at least in part, to work through questions of intercultural translation and transference central to the situation of migrants. In the first chapter, I show how the German translation of Taner's

Abstract:

This thesis explores Dorothy West's interpretation of the migration experience through her novel The Living is Easy. Dorothy West breaks new ground by documenting a Black female migrant's sojourn from South to North in an era in which such narratives were virtually non-existent. West seemingly rejects both a separation between North and South as well any sentiment of condemning the North or South in totality. Instead, West chooses to settle her novel in a gray area. Moreover, in refusing to condemn the South, Dorothy West redeems the South from oversimplified negative assumptions of the region

In my discussion I expose the ways a narrative can be shaped and aligned such that it appears to provide agency for the migrant character, particularly in respect to inviting the notion of desire, feminist discourses, human rights, alienation, yet fails to challenge the structure of the dominant culture.
