Kelman writes back: Literacy Politics in the Work of a Scottish WriterBöhnke, Dietmar 25 October 2018 (has links)
The books in this new series suggest that we live in an exciting age of
explorations. We now have the great opportunity to chart the
territories between disciplines and cultures, to map forgotten or as yet
undiscovered areas of thought, culture and writing. The monographs
and collections from Leipzig try to break out of unproductive
oppositions say between East and West, North and South, humanities
and sciences, or academic discourse and journalism. Instead we are
encouraging the emergence of triangular constellations, such as
between Newfoundland, Scotland and West Africa, or between
travelogue, science and women’s writing, or between alchemy,
prehistory and bicycles. Pioneer studies on contemporary authors will
be another asset of this series. The focus of Leipzig Explorations is on
literatures in English, albeit with a strong emphasis on comparative
and interdisciplinary studies. We particularly encourage essayistic
writing that combines academic knowledge with passion and
curiosity.
