Indonesian Notebook de Brian Russell Roberts

Indonesian Notebook

Editat de Brian Russell Roberts
en Limba Engleză Hardback – apr 2016
While Richard Wright's account of the 1955 Bandung Conference in "The Color Curtain"has been key to shaping Afro-Asian historical narratives, Indonesian accounts of Wright and his conference attendance have been largely overlooked. "Indonesian Notebook" contains myriad documents by Indonesian writers, intellectuals, and reporters, as well as a newly recovered lecture by Wright, previously published only in Indonesian. Brian Russell Roberts and Keith Foulcher introduce and contextualize these documents with extensive background information and analysis, showcasing the heterogeneity of postcolonial modernity and underscoring the need to consider non-English language perspectives in transnational cultural exchanges. This collection of primary sources and scholarly histories is a crucial companion volume to Wright's"The Color Curtain."
