Studies in Asia-Pacific "Mixed Race"
This series will focus on the construction of mixed race or creole identities within the Asia-Pacific region. There has been considerable discussion of mixed race within European and American contexts (mestiza, hapa, metis, beur, etc) but comparatively little has been said about the many biracial and 'multiracial populations within the Asia-Pacific. Economic globalisation demands that people cross national borders with increasing frequency. This means that new mixed race identities are a prominent feature of the contemporary world. The series examines this contemporary importance from a variety of disciplinary perspectives as well as considering the ways that mixed race categories were in the past constructed out of the colonial encounter. The series accepts monographs, collected papers and conference proceedings. This series will focus on the construction of mixed race or creole identities within the Asia-Pacific region.

Raccordi
Studi di letteratura e altre disciplineLa collana avvia una riflessione sui rapporti tra letteratura e altri saperi, osservando il modo in cui il testo letterario si arricchisce di temi, lessico, stili, forme, retorica propri di altri ambiti scientifici. Obiettivo della collana è indagare la rete di relazioni che la ricerca letteraria intrattiene con i linguaggi artistici (dal cinema al teatro, alla musica, alle arti figurative, alla serialità televisiva), con le discipline scientifiche (dalla biologia all’ecologia, dalle neuroscienze alla matematica), con la medicina, (dalla medicina narrativa alle Medical Humanities), con le scienze sociali, con il diritto, con l’economia e con le tecnologie. L’originalità della ricerca che si propone consiste nell’ambizione di rispecchiare l’intreccio tra ambiti apparentemente diversi, indagando il modo in cui le conoscenze letterarie influiscono sulle altre e viceversa, nel tentativo di correggere ogni rigida chiusura in specialismi contrapposti e cogliere l’evoluzione storica ed epistemica attraverso forme di dialogo e/o di scontro. La collana ospiterà opere dedicate al tema delle intersezioni tra discipline, mantenendo la letteratura sempre al centro degli equilibri. La prospettiva dovrà essere preferibilmente letteraria, con un’attenzione privilegiata alla letteratura italiana.
