Description
The volumes published in this series analyze literary and cinematic narrations from the Alpe Adria region and the Mediterranean. The literary, visual, historical, cultural, and inguistic dynamics which characterize these areas play an essential, multifaceted role in their various manifestations, past and present. Against this backdrop, the term "border" becomes a highly complex, volatile concept.
This volume revisits the Mediterranean by analyzing war narrations from a transnational perspective. As a region, the Mediterranean has always been the scene of uncountable acts of wars which have sometimes changed the world order as such. The essays published in this collection shed light on the literary presentation of war and place special focus on the interdependence of war narratives and the perception of the Mediterranean.
