Narratives Of Trauma In South Asian Literature, Ryan Wander
Narratives Of Trauma In South Asian Literature, Ryan Wander
Critical Humanities
Narratives of Trauma in South Asian Literature uses seven geographically-focused clusters of essays to elucidate the ways in which the interdisciplinary field of trauma studies allows for a delineation of the cultural and historical specificity of South Asian narratives of trauma. These essays simultaneously serve as a means for connecting South Asian literary accounts of individual and collective trauma to broader national and transnational dynamics.
