Exile: Displacements and Misplacements

by Wojciech Kalaga (Editor), Tadeusz Rachwal (Editor)

Peopled with diasporas and individuals, the space of exile persistently exists, though it cannot be circumscribed. Papers collected in the volume traverse that space in various directions, shedding some light on its manifold regions, niches, and chasms. Through raising diverse questions of ontology, subjectivity, power, otherness, domination, meaning, etc., the book aims at fulfilling its modest task of foregrounding points of orientation in the space’s topography, and perhaps of tracing out paths linking its different areas.
