Conference Details
Title: Fractured Narratives: Pinter, Postmodernism and the Postcolonial
World
As the first of three international conferences sponsored by the Pinter
Centre's current AHRC-funded research project, 'Beyond the Linear
Narrative', this conference takes Harold Pinter's work in different genres
as the starting point for an investigation of experimental and innovative
approaches to narrative that characterise much postcolonial and diasporic
performance and literature. The conference aims to stimulate new ways of
conceptualising the field of postcolonial and diasporic
performance/writing, asking a series of questions about the links between
inter-cultural transformations and political change and the emergence, or
perhaps, re-emergence, of non-linear and fractured narrative.
