Taking the absence of discussion on transnationalism in South Asia as a crucial juncture as well as a point of intervention, this book intends to push the boundaries further by organizing a dialogue between the nation-state and many nationalisms and the emergent method of transnationalism. It opens itself up for many cross-border movements, formulating the trans-South Asian discursive exchange necessitated by contemporary theoretical upheavals. It looks at such exchanges through the prism(s) of literature and cinema and traces many modes of engagement that exist between some of the globally dominant literary and cinematic forms, trying to locate these engagements and negotiations across three geopolitical formations and locations of culture, namely region, nation and trans-nation"--| Item type | Current location | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
