Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. The first volume of A Comparative Literary History of Modern Slavery explores literary representations of enslavement with a focus on the emotions. The contributors consider how the diverse emotions generated by slavery have been represented over a historical period stretching from the 16th century to the present and across regions, languages, media and genres. The seventeen chapters explore different framings of emotional life in terms of sentiments and affects and consider how emotions intersect with literary registers and movements such as melodrama and realism. They also examine how writers, including some formerly enslaved people, sought to activate the feelings of readers, notably in the context of abolitionism. In addition to obvious psychological responses to slavery such as fear, sorrow and anger, they explore minor-key affects such as shame, disgust and nostalgia and address the complexity of depicting love and intimacy in situations of domination. Two forthcoming volumes explore the literary history of slavery in relation to memory and to practices of authorship. Approaching slavery as an affective as well as an economic practice, contributions consider how, across a historical period stretching from the 16th century to the present and across regions, languages and genres ranging from poetry and the novel to travel literature and correspondence, the range of emotions that it generated are represented. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
