Märksõnad:
"The book analyzes Transylvania's role in modernity and modernism in juxtaposition with coloniality and inter-imperiality. It does so through an interrogation of the main themes in Liviu Rebreanu's 1920 novel "Ion"--ranging from the land question and capitalist integration through antisemitism and Roma enslavement up to multilingualism, gender relations and religion"--

How are modernity, coloniality, and interimperiality entangled? Bridging the humanities and social sciences, Anca Parvulescu and Manuela Boatca provide innovative decolonial perspectives that aim to creolize modernity and the modern world-system. Historical Transylvania, at the intersection of the Habsburg Empire, the Ottoman Empire, Austria-Hungary, and Russia, offers the platform for their multi-level reading of the main themes in Liviu Rebreanu's 1920 novel Ion. Topics range from the question of the region's capitalist integration to antisemitism and the enslavement of Roma to multilingualism, gender relations, and religion. Creolizing the Modern develops a comparative method for engaging with areas of the world that have inherited multiple, conflicting imperial and anti-imperial histories.

Arvustused

Creolizing the Modern delivers. This book's crowning achievement is its insertion of East Central Europe, with all its particularities, in the historical development of capitalist modernity. [ U]nraveling the threads of its predicament can teach us much about our world. Creolizing the Modern does precisely so.

(Milo Jovanovi, Journal of World-Systems Research) Creolizing the Modern is one of the most important books published in the last years. It is an outstanding book that deserves to be read and discussed widely.

(José Itzigsohn, Journal of World-Systems Research) Innovative, boldly interdisciplinary, and conceptually ambitious, Anca Parvulescu and Manuela Boatc's Creolizing the Modern defies easy classification.
