Brexit and Literature

Critical and Cultural Responses

More about the book

Brexit is a political, economic and administrative event: and it is a cultural one, too. In <i>Brexit and Literature</i>, Robert Eaglestone brings together a diverse range of literary scholars, writers and poets to respond to this aspect of Brexit. The discipline of 'English', as the very name suggests, is concerned with cultural and national identity: literary studies has always addressed ideas of nationalism and the wider political process. With the ramifications of Brexit expected to last for decades to come, <i>Brexit and Literature </i>offers the first academic study of its impact on and through the humanities. Including a preface from Baroness Young of Hornsey, <i>Brexit and Literature </i>is a bold and unapologetic volume, focusing on the immediate effects of the divisive referendum while meditating on its long-term impact.
