    This is the first book about the literature of the Irish in London. By examining over 30 novels, short stories and autobiographies set in London since the Second World War, London Irish Fictions investigates the complex psychological landscapes of belonging and cultural allegiance found in these unique and intensely personal perspectives on the Irish experience of migration. As well as bringing new research to bear on the work of established Irish writers such as Edna O’Brien, John McGahern, Emma Donoghue and Joseph O’Connor, this study reveals a fascinating and hitherto unexplored literature, diverse in form and content. By synthesising theories of narrative and diaspora into a new methodological approach to the study of migration, London Irish Fictions sheds new light on the ways in which migrant identities are negotiated, mediated and represented through literature. It also examines the specific role that the metropolis plays in literary portrayals of migrant experience as an arena for the performance of Irishness, as a catalyst in transformations of Irishness and as an intrinsic component of second-generation Irish identities. Furthermore, by analysing the central role of narrative in configuring migrant cultures and identities, it reassesses notions of exile, escape and return in Irish culture more generally. In this regard, it has particular relevance to current debates on migration and multiculturalism in both Britain and Ireland, especially in the wake of an emerging new phase of Irish migration in the post-‘Celtic Tiger’ era

    Erinnerung und Identität gelten als zentrale Themen der Kurzgeschichten und Romane von Doeschka Meijsing (1947-2012) - doch deren literarische Inszenierungen wurden bislang kaum untersucht. Christina Lammer zeichnet die beiden Aspekte als zentrale Themenkomplexe systematisch nach und bietet neben einer Einführung in das Gesamtwerk auch neue Sichtweisen auf die Hauptwerke der Autorin. So macht sie ersichtlich, wie die untersuchte Prosa anspielungsreich sinnstiftende Prozesse von Erinnerungskonstruktionen hinterfragt und dabei die Bedeutung intersektionaler Biographien literarischer Figuren - als Resultate struktureller Diskriminierungen und Privilegierungen - inszeniert.

    Main description: Das vorliegende Buch beschäftigt sich mit der Laghukath?, einer Prosagattung der modernen Hindiliteratur, die sich durch extreme Kürze (durchschnittlich 500 Wörter) sowie sozial-politisches Engagement auszeichnet und seit den 70er Jahren des 20. Jahrhunderts in hindisprachigen Tageszeitungen und Zeitschriften veröffentlicht wird. Die Bedeutung der Laghukath? im Kontext der modernen Hindiprosa liegt darin, daß sie als Gattung in der indigenen Tradition verwurzelt ist: indische, mündliche wie schriftliche Formen sind modernisiert worden, während es sich z.B. bei Hindi-Kurzgeschichten und -Romanen um aus dem Westen importierte Gattungen handelt, die an die eigenen Bedürfnisse angepaßt und indisiert wurden. Eine ausführliche Analyse von ca. 280 Primärtexten sowie eine Kritik der relevanten Sekundärliteratur in Hindi geben einen umfassenden Überblick über die literarischen Eigenarten und die historische Entwicklung dieser Gattung und ermöglichen es schließlich, die Charakteristika einer "idealtypischen" Laghukath? darzustellen. Das Bild wird durch Übersetzungen von ca. 50 repräsentativen Texten aus dem Hindi ins Englische abgerundet, die einer westlichen Leserschaft erstmalig einen Einblick in diese Gattung ermöglichen

    Main description: The book presented here is the first work of Western literary criticism to examine the Hindi laghukath? - a modern Indian prose genre that has been published since the 1970s in Hindi newspapers and magazines and is characterised by its concise form (500 words on average) and socio-political agenda. The importance of the genre within the Hindi literary scene lies in the fact that the laghukath? is based on indigenous genres which have been modernised, whereas the Hindi short story and the novel are Western genres that have been appropriated and Indianised. A thorough investigation of around 280 primary texts accompanied by an evaluation of the relevant Hindi criticism gives a comprehensive literary analysis of this genre and its historical development. This allows, in conclusion, to delineate an "ideal type" of laghukath?, suggesting a range of compulsory, desirable and optional features. English translations of almost 50 representative Hindi texts complete the picture and thus provide an insight into this genre so far unknown to a Western audience

    Review text: "Sarma is a keen and attentive reader who brings out many interesting aspects in her analysis of the directness and rhetorical effect of the sampled texts. The argument in both the historical and literary analysis of Laghukatha is made with great clarity and insistence. The chapters on the language of Laghukatha show her in-depth technical understanding of the language and its literature, leading to an insightful analysis of the workings and structures of this genre."Thomas de Bruijn in: South Asia Research 1/2007

    Description based upon print version of record

    Everyday life in the far outposts of empire can be static, empty of the excitement of progress. A pervading sense of banality and boredom are, therefore, common elements of the daily experience for people living on the colonial periphery. Saikat Majumdar suggests that this impoverished affective experience of colonial modernity significantly shapes the innovative aesthetics of modernist fiction.Prose of the World explores the global life of this narrative aesthetic, from late-colonial modernism to the present day, focusing on a writer each from Ireland (James Joyce), New Zealand (Katherine Man
