La lettura degli altri
Proseguendo il lavoro avviato con La patria degli altri, questo secondo volume della ‘Serie Interculturale’ raccoglie i contributi di esperti di diverse discipline, riuniti nel “Seminario di Studi Interculturali” di Sapienza, che si sono avvicinati al tema della lettura dell’alterità proponendo un ampio spettro di declinazioni dell’idea di partenza. Le indagini qui proposte spaziano dall’interpretazione del testo, trama di riletture e riscritture, all’osservazione dell’altro culturale; dalla relazione fra opera figurativa e parola, alla relazione fra performance teatrale e tradizione narrativa. L’accento ricade sugli aspetti transnazionali della scrittura, sulla costruzione e percezione di immagini del Sé e dell’Altro, sulle simmetrie e asimmetrie che caratterizzano gli scambi fra culture legate a gruppi, luoghi e tempi diversi. Testi e immagini, anche lontani dalla contemporaneità, rivelano così la loro potenziale rilevanza per una comprensione dei meccanismi oggi attivi nell’arena globale delle culture, mettendo in discussione la tradizione degli studi su base nazionale, europea e occidentale.
Paradoxes of Postcolonial Culture
This innovative contribution to understanding the promise and contradictions of contemporary postcolonial culture applies a wide array of theoretical tools to a large body of literature. The author compares the work of established Indian writers including Bharati Mukherjee, Meena Alexander, Sara Suleri, and Sunetra Gupta to new writings by such Afro-Italian immigrant women as Ermina dell'Oro, Maria Abbebù Viarengo, Ribka Sibhatu, and Sirad Hassan. Sandra Ponzanesi's analysis highlights a set of dissymmetrical relationships that are set in the context of different imperial, linguistic, and market policies. By dealing with issues of representation linked to postcolonial literary genres, to gender and ethnicity questions, and to new cartographies of diaspora, this book imbues the postcolonial debate with a new élan.

The Future of Postcolonial Studies
The Future of Postcolonial Studies celebrates the twenty-fifth anniversary of the publication of The Empire Writes Back by the now famous troika - Bill Ashcroft, Gareth Griffiths and Helen Tiffin. When The Empire Writes Back first appeared in 1989, it put postcolonial cultures and their post-invasion narratives on the map. This vibrant collection of fifteen chapters by both established and emerging scholars taps into this early mapping while merging these concerns with present trends which have been grouped as: comparing, converting, greening, post-queering and utopia. The postcolonial is a centrifugal force that continues to energize globalization, transnational, diaspora, area and queer studies. Spanning the colonial period from the 1860s to the present, The Future of Postcolonial Studies ventures into other postcolonies outside of the Anglophone purview. In reassessing the nation-state, language, race, religion, sexuality, the environment, and the very idea of 'the future,' this volume reasserts the notion that postcolonial is an "anticipatory discourse" and bears testimony to the driving energy and thus the future of postcolonial studies.

BREAD
Bread contains human knowledge: from knowledge concerning fertility of the land to farming methods harvesting, and seed processing, not to mention the different possibilities of consumption of cereals and the different ways in which they are cooked. In bread, we find all those components: the transformation of the natural landscape, technological and economic development which over the centuries have led to the building of a social organization, with a precise division and distribution of tasks and roles.
