It approaches recycling as a process that extends verandas of meanings and creates sites for ongoing discursive accretion of signification through the dialogic encounter between the old and the new, \"the residual\" and \"the emergent.\" Whether seen as markers of the capacity of the literary text to surprise and haunt it readers, or residues of systems of representations predicated on selective inclusion and strategies of exclusion, remnants can offer rich material for setting in motion new cycles of renewal. The contributors of this volume propose recycling as writing and reading strategies. The first grants the remnants an afterlife and allow for an opening up of new narrative possibilities; while the second constructs alternative readings by allowing unwanted remnants to return and fill in gaps and silences. These oddments of the literary text are essential to question the iniquities of cultural, racial, and class prejudices. They are unavoidable in the construction of an emergent literary and cultural matrix for disruption and change.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMounir Guirat\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of English and postcolonial literature at the University of Sfax, Tunisia. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eHenda Ammar-Guirat\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of English literature at the University of Sfax, Tunisia.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 170\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.56 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 22, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53801424847155,"sku":"9781666950274","price":185.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/Bp2-cJfTnl9781666950274_0d858cc6-e2da-4e9d-8381-1954ee83fe51.webp?v=1785968875","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/recycling-the-remnants-of-the-literary-text-verandas-for-the-residual-and-the-emergent-hardcover-1","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
