Writing Against Expulsion in the Post War World by David Herd
Writing Against Expulsion returns to a post-war period when the brutal consequences of the politics of expulsion were visible and when it was clear to writers of all kinds that space for the human had to be made. Drawing on contemporary histories of forced displacement, eye witness accounts, international legal documents, and on a range of emblematic cross-disciplinary texts and authors - including Hannah Arendt, Charles Olson, and Frantz Fanon - the book shows how mid-century writers documented the lived experience of expulsion and asserted ways of thinking and action by which it could be prevented.
