Overview

This book discusses cultural melange in a variety of different textual and non-textual aesthetic practices within literature, theatre, and music. The process of globalisation has left no corner of the world untouched. Although many studies use postcolonial theory to understand its large-scale effects, the contributors to this book show how such theory can be drawn on for productive use also in other contexts, such as the Scandinavian. In doing so, they also rework the well-worn concept of hybridity to one of cultural melange , creating a lens by which to take a broader view of the phenomenon: from Africa to Poland, from France to Norway, various forms of globalisation processes have accelerated an interpenetration of cultures which takes place on a number of widely different cultural arenas.
