The Routledge Handbook of Refugee Narratives Hardback
Edited by Evyn Le Espiritu Gandhi, Vinh Nguyen
Part of the Routledge Literature Handbooks series
Hardback
Description
This Handbook presents a transnational and interdisciplinary study of refugee narratives, broadly defined.
Interrogating who can be considered a refugee and what constitutes a narrative, the thirty-eight chapters included in this collection encompass a range of forcibly displaced subjects, a mix of geographical and historical contexts, and a variety of storytelling modalities.
Analyzing novels, poetry, memoirs, comics, films, photography, music, social media, data, graffiti, letters, reports, eco-design, video games, archival remnants, and ethnography, the individual chapters counter dominant representations of refugees as voiceless victims.
Addressing key characteristics and thematics of refugee narratives, this Handbook examines how refugee cultural productions are shaped by and in turn shape socio-political landscapes.
It will be of interest to researchers, teachers, students, and practitioners committed to engaging refugee narratives in the contemporary moment.
