{"product_id":"effect-of-palimpsest","title":"Effect of Palimpsest","description":"This volume, entitled \u003ci\u003eThe Effect of Palimpsest: Culture, Literature, History\u003c\/i\u003e, undertakes the pioneering task of employing the notion of palimpsest in the multi-layered and changing cultural landscape specific to East Central Europe. The multifarious readings presented in the collection, which evolved from a 2009 conference at the University of Chicago, contribute to a critical reframing of the origins, history and theory of the concept of the palimpsest. Beyond being viewed as an epistemological metaphor, the palimpsest reveals its potential to generate and engage a complex network of complementary meanings. The essays included in this collection probe the palimpsest across the ages, as well as in a variety of genres, media, and cultural spheres in order to revise and redefine our present understanding of the concept and its instantiations.","brand":"Peter Lang AG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54248539291992,"sku":"9783631603406","price":61.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9783631603406_ad69ed1e-ac31-40c8-88ca-08e0b720ea5e.jpg?v=1777829428","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/effect-of-palimpsest","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
