Dreaming Forward: How Storytelling Reimagines Identity and Belonging: DQR Studies in Literature, cartea 68

Elena Ogliari, Anna Pasolini, Carla Tempestoso
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 17 dec 2026
How do stories shape who we are and who we might become? Dreaming Forward explores narratives' transformative power across centuries and genres. You'll discover how storytelling constructs identity, challenges belonging, and reimagines social worlds. Through chapters examining Indigenous futurities, queer temporalities, feminist utopias, and maternal narratives, this collection demonstrates that storytelling is never neutral: it can liberate or oppress, empower or exclude. Drawing on a variety of theoretical and critical frameworks, these essays reveal how literary texts assemble new ways of being-with-others. Essential reading for scholars and students interested in narrative's ethical stakes and world-making potential.

Contributors include: Anna Caterino, Carla Tempestoso, Debora Sarnelli, Andrea Lupi, Serena Ammendola, Carolina Pisapia, Lucio De Capitani, Elena Ogliari
