Glocal Metamodernisms - European Fiction after Postmodernism

This volume explores how the contemporary European novel reflects the tensions between local and global conceptualizations of Metamodernism . Each chapter explicitly addresses metamodern novels'' "glocality" in relation to international Metamodernism theory from a variety of perspectives including Dutch, English, Finnish, French, Italian, Spanish and Ukrainian. By bringing together insights into the manifestations of Metamodernism in such a variety of cultural contexts, this volume furthers our understanding of the concept of Metamodernism and contextualizes the enduring influence of the legacies of Modernism and Postmodernism in European literature
