Dear Colleagues,
I am pleased to announce the publication of a new
volume:
Dimitrova, Diana, ed. The Other in South Asian Religion,
Literature and
Film: Perspectives on Otherism and Otherness. London and New
York:
Routledge, 2013. ISBN: 978-0-415-71152-4
This book introduces
the term "otherism" and looks at the discourse of
otherism and the issue of
otherness in South Asian religion, literature
and film. Scholars from the
United States, Canada, Europe, India and
Pakistan examine cultural questions
related to the human condition of
being the "other," of the process of
"othering" and of the
representation of "otherness" and its religious,
cultural and
ideological implications.
