Description
Margins are a place of change, transformation, fluidity, and (re)location. To stand on the margins is to be transgressive, interdicted, eccentric. To prefer the margins over the central/centralised dominant culture is to take up a space of resistance. Therefore, it is crucial to embody marginality and counterpower in order to construct, deconstruct, and reconstruct the complexity of reality.
In this light, Margins in Motion: Crossing Borders, Shifting Identities, and the Politics of Being is a collection that cherishes living, creating, and thinking from the margins. Spanning from literature to history, cultural studies, gender studies, and eco-criticism, this interdisciplinary volume scrutinises how geographical, social, emotional, and even symbolic borders shape an individual’s understanding of identity, belonging, and exclusion.
The chapters analyse experiences as diverse as migration during the Holocaust, ecofeminist theatre, and dystopian fiction to explain how people and communities are marginalised; simultaneously, it aims at demonstrating how this marginalisation is reimagined and transformed.
