Description
The Global South Atlantic explores the interconnected networks and literary exchanges across the South Atlantic region. This comparative study reveals how people, governments, political movements, social imaginaries, cultural artefacts, goods, and markets have crossed or failed to cross the southern ocean. By examining the complex structures of power and knowledge that issue from the Global South as much as Europe and North America, The Global South Atlantic helps to rebalance global literary studies. This book sheds light on a multi-textured South Atlantic system that is neither singular nor stable. Through its analysis, The Global South Atlantic provides new insights into the region's history and cultural dynamics, highlighting the need for a more nuanced understanding of the South Atlantic as an effect of multiple intersecting regions and competing visions.
