Dear scholars and readers,
Following the increasing academic interest in Gypsies, Roma, and Sinti; this timely publication investigates those cultures in 19th children’s literature:
'Gypsies' in Nineteenth-Century Children’s Books: A Comparative Study of Four National Literary Traditions (https://brill.com/display/title/63274)
In this study Dutch, English, French and German texts are analyzed from the lenses of imagology with emphasis on the rich variation in narrative presentations.
As part of Brill’s Studia Imagologica series (www.brill.com/IMAG), it focuses on the study of images in the literary discourse and includes perspectives from Comparative Literature and Cultural Studies. Stereotypes and prejudices about our own and others' national characters, attitudes which govern our rhetoric, discursive representation, and more perspectives are taken into consideration.
Here are some of the most recent titles, available in Open Access, where you can learn more about the series:
European Modernity and the Passionate South, edited by Xavier Andreu-Miralles and Mónica Bolufer-Peruga
New Perspectives on Imagology, edited by Katharina Edtstadler, Sandra Folie, and Gianna Zocco
National Stereotyping, Identity Politics, European Crises, edited by Jürgen Barkhoff and Joep Leerssen
Does your research align with that of Brill’s?
Would you like to contribute with your perspective?
