| Summary: | The contemporary moment is characterized by precarity - an expanding and intensifying vulnerability conditioned by political and economic structures. Using literary and cultural texts to develop a nuanced and critical exploration of the concept of precarity that emphasizes its contemporary manifestations while also attending to its historical roots and existential dimensions, this book examines the vulnerabilities which characterize our anxious existence, including unemployment, environmental crisis, temporary contracts and patterns of migration. Broken down into three key themes of feelings, bodies and time, Precarity in Contemporary Literature and Culture asks whether precarity can be considered a new phenomenon; explores the relationship between precarity and traditional class politics; analyses precarity's global dimensions; and reflects on the links between contemporary crisis and underlying existential human vulnerability. With reference to a wide range of forms such as contemporary, realist, science fiction and modernist novels, film, theatre, and the lyric poem, this book goes beyond one national context to consider texts from the US, UK, Germany and South Africa |

Hogg and Peter Simonsen Paperback edition London Bloomsbury Academic 2023 xi, 206 Seiten Illustrationen txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier The contemporary moment is characterized by precarity - an expanding and intensifying vulnerability conditioned by political and economic structures. Using literary and cultural texts to develop a nuanced and critical exploration of the concept of precarity that emphasizes its contemporary manifestations while also attending to its historical roots and existential dimensions, this book examines the vulnerabilities which characterize our anxious existence, including unemployment, environmental crisis, temporary contracts and patterns of migration. Broken down into three key themes of feelings, bodies and time, Precarity in Contemporary Literature and Culture asks whether precarity can be considered a new phenomenon; explores the relationship between precarity and traditional class politics; analyses precarity's global dimensions; and reflects on the links between contemporary crisis and underlying existential human vulnerability. With reference to a wide range of forms such as contemporary, realist, science fiction and modernist novels, film, theatre, and the lyric poem, this book goes beyond one national context to consider texts from the US, UK, Germany and South Africa Unsicherheit Motiv (DE-588)1067300333 gnd rswk-swf Zeit Motiv (DE-588)4207564-6 gnd rswk-swf Gefühl Motiv (DE-588)4207378-9 gnd rswk-swf Prekariat Motiv (DE-588)7713508-8 gnd rswk-swf Literatur (DE-588)4035964-5 gnd rswk-swf Körper Motiv (DE-588)4164424-4 gnd rswk-swf Englisch (DE-588)4014777-0 gnd rswk-swf Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf Südafrika (DE-588)4078012-0 gnd rswk-swf Deutschland (DE-588)4011882-4 gnd rswk-swf (DE-588)4143413-4 Aufsatzsammlung gnd-content Englisch (DE-588)4014777-0 s Literatur (DE-588)4035964-5 s Unsicherheit Motiv (DE-588)1067300333 s Prekariat Motiv (DE-588)7713508-8 s DE-604 USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 g Deutschland (DE-588)4011882-4 g Südafrika (DE-588)4078012-0 g Gefühl Motiv (DE-588)4207378-9 s Körper Motiv (DE-588)4164424-4 s Zeit Motiv (DE-588)4207564-6 s Simonsen, Peter (DE-588)1063063264 edt Äquivalent Druck-Ausgabe, Hardcover 978-1-3501-6670-7 Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, PDF 978-1-3501-6671-4 Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe 978-1-3501-6672-1 |
