The Canonical Debate Today
The Canonical Debate Today. Crossing Disciplinary and Cultural Boundaries re-enacts the canonical issues current in the ’90s from a new perspective, triggered by the changes that occurred worldwide in understanding the concepts and the status of theory, in the legacy of literary studies within the field of humanities, and in cultural production and reception. During the last decade discussions of globalization mostly took into account its impact on the status of academic disciplines such as comparative literature or cultural studies, or the reconfiguration of national literary fields. These debates do not dispense with canonicity altogether but make it more urgent and necessary. Canons see...
Queer Culture in Romania, 1920–2018
This book is an in depth, extensive study of Romanian queer cultural products. It brings an essential contribution to the literature on Central and South Eastern European gender studies, post-communism studies, media, and cultural studies, as well as transnational queer studies. The book looks at Romanian queer culture ”from inside”, and from the acknowledgment that the research process is guided by the sensitivity of the approached topics, by the lack of archival footprints, and by a solid dose of media archaeology, especially when looking at the beginning of Romanian LGBT+ activism in the 90s. The book starts from contemporary Romanian cultural products that are focusing on queer topics and/or produced by queer creators. It looks back at the memories of seminal queer and trans activists in extensive interviews conducted for this volume, and fragmented literary and media sources that cover the most part of the 20th century. About the translation This book has been translated from Romanian by Andreea Moise. The Introduction and Chapter 6 were translated by Maria Cohut.

Voci din exil
După ’89, odată cu spulberarea interdicțiilor (parțiale sau totale), într-o lume agitată și neașezată, cum era România post-ceaușistă, aportul diasporenilor (prin literatura și revuistica exilului) a provocat „un fenomen neliniștitor”. După „abuzuri de uitare” și manipularea memoriei, trecutul se rescria, iscând rocade și seisme ierarhice. Pretenția că „doar înlăuntrul granițelor RPR”, cum se pronunțase T. Vianu, se năștea literatura română, s-a văzut grabnic infirmată. Și, în replică, un alt exclusivism își făcea loc, doar cei din afară reprezentând, chipurile, literatura română, fluturând, într-o zonă „deșertificată”, „liste ...
