Transoceanic and Transmedial Imaginaries in the Indian Ocean

Beschreibung

This book explores multiple aesthetic relations constantly in flux, which construct, deconstruct and reconstruct the Indian Ocean. It addresses the questions of how the arts- music, literature, visual art, performance - relate to and dynamically create imaginaries of the Indian Ocean as a transcontinental space.
