The Post-Bildungsroman: Coming of Age at the Margins - Hardcover
Description
by Ricardo Quintana-Vallejo (Editor)
The Post-Bildungsroman reimagines the coming-of-age genre, exploring youth, identity, and belonging in narratives at the margins of comics, videogames, and experimental novels.
Throughout this collection, contributors use the theoretical framework of the Bildungsroman to analyze youth development, identity-in-flux, decolonial logic, as well as negotiation of maturity and belonging in contemporary narratives at the margins of literature (sequential art, comics, videogames, experimental novels, etc.). This edited collection subverts colonial and narrow apologies of the Bildungsroman that claim it to be an exclusively European, enlightened sub-genre of the novelAuthor Biography
