Consisting of an instructive introduction and 21 articles, the book relates this sub-field of comparative literature to contemporary political developments and enriches it with new interdisciplinary, transnational, intersectional, and intermedial perspectives. The contributions offer [1] a reconsideration and update of the field’s methods, genres, and theoretical frames; [2] trans-\/post-national, migratory, and marginalized perspectives beyond the European nation-state; [3] insights into geopolitical dichotomies such as Orient\/Occident; [4] intersectional approaches considering the entanglements of national images with notions of age, class, gender, sexuality, and ethnicity\/race; [5] investigations of the role of national images in visual narratives and music.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgements  List of Figures and Tables  Notes on Contributors    Introduction: New Perspectives on Imagology   Katharina Edtstadler, Sandra Folie and Gianna Zocco    Part 1: Reconsidering the European Conception of Imagology and Its Peripheries: Methods, Genres, Theoretical Frames    1 Enmity, Identity, Discourse: Imagology and the State   Joep Leerssen  2 Axiological Foundations of Imagology   Davor Dukić  3 Toward a Production-Oriented Imagology   Ulrike Kristina Köhler  4 Imagology and the Analysis of Identity Discourses in Late Eighteenth- and Nineteenth-Century European Travel Writing by Charles Dickens and Karl Philipp Moritz   Sandra Vlasta    Part 2: Imagology beyond and across the European Nation-State: Trans-\/Postnational, Migratory, and Marginalized Perspectives    5 The Fall of the Berlin Wall Transnational: Images and Stereotypes in Yadé Kara’s Selam Berlin and Paul Beatty’s Slumberland   Gianna Zocco  6 Immigration and Imagology, or Nationalisms Abandoned   Manfred Beller  7 Transnationalizing National Characterization: Meta-Images and the Centre-Periphery Dynamics in Spain and the South Slavic Region   Josip Kešić    Part 3: Of Orient\/Occident and Other Geopolitical Dichotomies: Imagology and Its Systems of Cultural Mappings    8 Between Orient and Occident: The Construction of a Postimperial Turkish Identity in Ahmet Hamdi Tanpınar’s Novel Huzur   Johanna Chovanec  9 European Ethnotypes in Chinese Words: The Translation and Negotiation of Some Western National Characters in Early Nineteenth-Century China   Federica Casalin  10 A Study on The Travel Journal and Pictures: Li Danlin’s Image of Foreign Lands and Cultures   Zhu Wenjun  11 “I have gotten used to the whites, but I tremble before the blacks!”: Fashioning Colonial Subjectivities in The Brave Rabbit in Africa   Kristína Kállay  12 The Myth of the Orient in Flaubert’s Voyage en Égypte and Bachmann’s Das Buch Franza   Walter Wagner    Part 4: Intersectional Approaches to Imagology: The Multiple Entanglements of Ethnotypes    13 Categories, Stereotypes, Images, and Intersectionality   Martina Thiele  14 Nationality as Intersectional Storytelling: Inventing the Parisienne   Maria Weilandt  15 A “Jezebel” or a Further “Madwoman in the Attic” in Caroline Lee Hentz’s The Planter’s Northern Bride   Karin Andersson  16 Images of Bosniac Women in Contemporary Antiwar Films: An Intersectional Analysis of Victim Feminism in Grbavica and In the Land of Blood and Honey   Ivana Drmić    Part 5: Imagology Intermedial: Beyond the Literary Text    17 National Images in Visual Narratives: The (Re)Presentation of National Characters in the Flemish Comic Series Suske en Wiske   Christine Hermann  18 #JeSuisAmatrice: Identity through a Landscape of Wounds; Toward a Geo-Imagology   Daniel Brandlechner  19 Singing the Dutch: An Extended Imagological Approach to Constructions of “Dutchness” in Late Eighteenth-Century Political Songs   Renée Vulto  20 “… the first singer, a born German”: Notions of Nationality as a Field of Conflict in Operatic Music of the 1770s   Andrea Horz  21 Blurring Stereotypes: “Aus dem Leben eines Tonkünstlers” as a Medium of Italian Musical Character around 1800   Carolin Krahn    Index","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53210818281815,"sku":"9789004450127","price":114.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/new-perspectives-on-imagology-9789004450127","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
