The Routledge Companion to Literature and Human Rights - Bog

This book provides a comprehensive, transnational, and interdisciplinary map to the field, offering a broad overview of human rights and literature while providing innovative new readings on a range of topics. The first of its kind, this volume moves beyond survey to offer innovative, insightful pieces that develop, critique, and test boundaries, expanding the idea of human rights literature to include texts that have often been excluded from the literary such as legal texts, performances, visual culture, and human rights reports. Drawn from many different global contexts, the essays offer an ideal introduction for those approaching the area for the first time, or looking for new insights, directions, and interdisciplinary perspectives.
