English in a World of Strangers

Herausgeber: Kumar Malreddy, Pavan; Schulze-Engler, Frank

This book explores core issues in the emerging field of World Anglophone Studies.

Pavan Kumar Malreddy (Goethe University Frankfurt) specializes in 20th- and 21st-century comparative Anglophone literatures and cultures with a regional focus on East Asia, Africa, and South Asia and with a thematic focus on conflicts, communal bonds, insurgencies, populism, public life, and migrancy. He co-edits Kairos: A Journal of Critical Symposium; his recent books include several co-edited volumes and the monograph Insurgent Cultures: World Literatures and Violence from the Global South (2024).
