This course is a casus course within the Verdiepingspakket World Literature. The course introduces students to the phenomenon of historical and contemporary diasporic literature and literatures of migration. How does literary writing reflect on experiences of migration? How do narratives and poems contribute to the imagination of cultural and political collectives? How does exile and displacement trigger efforts to imagine cultural belonging outside of national confines? In the wake of globalization, the world has become increasingly interconnected, and the course studies how different literary texts respond to this new situation, offering students insights into how literature reflects on cross-cultural encounters and contributes to our understanding of experiences of displacement and diaspora.
