Featuring twenty-seven essays written by leading scholars, this anthology argues that literary expressions of magical realism proliferate globally in the twenty-first century due to travel and migrations, the shrinking of time and space, and the growing encroachment of human life on nature. In this global context, magical realism addresses twenty-first century politics, aesthetics, identity, and social\/national formations where contact between and within cultures has exponentially increased, altering how communities and nations imagine themselves.\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003eThis text assembles a group of critics throughout the world--the Americas, Europe, Africa, Asia, the Middle East, and Australia--who employ multiple theoretical approaches to examine the different ways magical realism in literature has transitioned to a global practice; thus, signaling a new stage in the history and development of the genre. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45274136707223,"sku":"9783030398347","price":14690.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783030398347.webp?v=1769278995","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-palgrave-handbook-of-magical-realism-in-the-twenty-first-century-9783030398347","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
