Eighteenth-Century Transplantations : New Literary Lives, Forms and Contexts Hardback
Edited by Anna Paluchowska-Messing, Jakub Lipski, Joanna Maciulewicz
Part of the Routledge Studies in Eighteenth-Century Literature series
Hardback
Description
This collection studies eighteenth-century British literature as enmeshed within a dynamic intercultural traffic, participating in the inport and export of literary and cultural forms.
Eighteenth-Century Transplantations places this transcultural circulation at the centre of attention and presents its products in a unique configuration, whereby literary transplants into the British context, out of it, and their transmedial afterlives are set together in order to showcase the mechanisms of such cultural commerce.
The term 'transplantation', borrowed from medical and horticultural discourses and evocative of eighteenth-century experiments in gardening, is offered here as a useful kinetic model to conceptualize the diverse practices involved in relocating a literary text into a new cultural environment.
