Résumé

Continuing the series on Diasporas, Cultures of Mobilities, 'Race', this second volume extends existing scholarship by exploring a range of multidisciplinary perspectives on the diasporic condition. Embodiment, memory and intimacy form three core themes through which the complexities of diasporic experiences are revealed and transmitted. Closely aligned to these concerns, the impact of de- territorialisation, inherent in the processes of migration and re-settlement, forms a strong thread throughout the collected essays.
Authors engage with individual and collective memorial processes embedded in the evolution of diasporic communities, exploring striking comparisons between diverse regions, states, cultures and linguistic zones. The intellectual and critical scope covered by this original collection of new essays is further reflected in the varied geographical origins of the contributors themselves. Dans le cadre de la série « Diasporas, Cultures de la mobilité, 'Race' », ce deuxième volume se propose de compléter les études sur le sujet au travers de regards croisés et interdisciplinaires sur la condition diasporique.
Les thèmes du corps, de la mémoire et de l'intime se tissent tout au long du recueil afin d'en révéler et d'en transmettre toute la complexité. Dans le même ordre d'idées, l'impact de la déterritorialisation, inhérent aux phénomènes de migration et relocalisation, est une autre optique majeure dans ce recueil d'essais. Les auteurs s'intéressent aux procédés mémoriels individuels et collectifs internes à l'évolution des communautés de diasporas, par d'étonnantes comparaisons entre diverses régions du monde, états et zones linguistiques.
La teneur intellectuelle, la portée critique et la singularité de ce nouveau volume d'essais se reflètent aussi dans les origines géographiques variées de ses contributeurs.
