The volume offers new methodologies to approach the political aesthetics of the border and related issues such as borderland identities and border-crossings. -- .

This interdisciplinary volume explores the role of images and representation in different borderscapes. Written by experienced scholars in border studies, the volume shows how borders, borderscapes, and migration are approached in public and private spheres as a part of the political aesthetics of the border. Claiming that aesthetic images of borders and borderscapes are central to the political negotiation of borders, the volume addresses issues such as encounters with borders in material and digital spaces, migration, and border-crossings. The contributions explore narrative and images in literary and media texts, documentaries, and border art, as well as borderland identities, migration, and trauma in geographical contexts including Northern Europe, the Mediterranean, Mexican-US borderlands, and Chinese borderlands.

Arvustused

'The collection succeeds in its intended purpose to contribute towards new approaches to the relevance and workings of borders. The book is of equal interest to students of cultural and literary English studies who wish to become acquainted with border studies, as much as for well-versed researchers looking for inspiration beyond the established forms of inquiry.' Sophie U. Kriegel, Leipzig University, Journal for the Study of British Cultures Vol. 29 Issue 1 (2022) -- .
