• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The texts of the volume all deal with the imperative of 'decolonization': they try to highlight aesthetic strategies of (re)discovery of unthematized, misappropriated, transcultural and even transcontinental histories and memories as well as aesthetic practices that are absent from or too little perceived in nationally bound consciousnesses. Novels, poems and musical performances from the East African region are analyzed as intertwined histories of the Indian Ocean. Artworks of the Black Atlantic and perceptions of Africa are discussed from, for example, Brazilian perspectives or within the German context. Decolonizing exhibition practices in ethnological or art museums are evaluated. A stimulating, wide-ranging and heterogeneous portrait of contemporary interwoven world cultures.
