Immigrants and Diasporas in European Languages and Literatures

Abstract

Literatures of immigrants and diasporas involve the idea of a homeland, a place from where the displacement occurs and narratives of harsh journeys undertaken on account of economic compulsions. ­Essentially, a ­Diaspora is a minority community living in exile. ­interface, Issue 7: Immigrants and Diasporas in European Languages and Literatures addresses this concept with three papers that range across space and time from Russia to France, and from antiquity to present times.
