Description

This critical examination explores how cosmopolitanism functions in contemporary literature amid the tensions between globalisation and resurgent nationalist movements. The collection interrogates cosmopolitanism not as an aspirational ideal but as a compulsory condition imposed by globalisation, analysing literary texts from diverse locales including England, Algeria, Sweden, former Yugoslavia, and Sudan. Through rigorous literary analysis, the essays investigate the contradictions and impasses inherent in cosmopolitan frameworks when engagement with strangers becomes mandatory rather than voluntary. The book addresses how writers from different cultural contexts respond to and resist the demands of a globalised world order. Published by Routledge as part of their Studies in Comparative Literature series, this volume contributes significantly to contemporary debates about literature's role in mediating between local identity and global consciousness. Scholars, students, and readers interested in literary theory, comparative literature, and cultural criticism will find substantial insight into how modern authors navigate the complexities of our interconnected world.
