Mapping Minor/small and World Literatures - Periphery and Center

This anthology challenges prevailing notions of world literature by showcasing marginalized voices from diverse backgrounds and regions from the global north to the global south. It seeks to dismantle the dominance of Western-European-centered minor and small literature, fostering genuine literary biodiversity and ensuring more inclusive discourse.
