Whether as a framing device, or a filter, or via resonances and parallels, Greek myth has proven fruitful for many writers of fiction since the end of the Cold War. This volume examines the varied ways that writers from around the world have turned to classical antiquity to articulate their own contemporary concerns. Featuring contributions by an international group of scholars from a number of disciplines, the volume offers a cutting-edge, interdisciplinary approach to contemporary literature from around the world. Analysing a range of significant authors and works, not usually brought together in one place, the book introduces readers to some less-familiar fiction, while demonstrating the central place that classical literature can claim in the global literary curriculum of the third millennium. The modern fiction covered is as varied as the acclaimed North American television series The Wire, contemporary Arab fiction, the Japanese novels of Haruki Murakami and the works of New Zealand's foremost Maori writer, Witi Ihimaera. This book explores the diverse ways that ancient Greek myth has been used in fiction internationally since 1989. Whether as a framing device, or a filter, or via resonances and parallels, Greek myth has proven fruitful for many writers of fiction since the end of the Cold War. Yet their engagement with it has been by no means homogeneous, and this volume examines the varied ways that writers from around the world have turned to classical antiquity to articulate their own contemporary concerns. While Greek myth and literature were key constituents in nineteenth-century realist and early twentieth-century modernist fiction, they faded in significance mid-century, at a time when V.S. Pritchett warned that the novel as a form would be inadequate to the cultural 'processing' of recent atrocities. However, the creative energies released by the end of the Cold War, the rise of the postcolonial novel, and the terrible recent conflicts in the Balkans, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Africa, which the collapse of the Soviet Union helped to engender, contributed to a remarkable renaissance of significant fiction which engaged once more with the Greeks. By drawing out this dimension, the volume challenges the conventional categorisation of works of fiction according to national tradition, even while the geographical range of the book includes works by Brazilian, French, German, Japanese, Indian, North American, Maori, African, Russian, Greek, Irish, and Arabic writers. lok: 46191860 3 exp: 46191860 3 1 #EPN 201B/01 $003-12-21 $t22:40:48.471 201C/01 $001-04-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01090552521 208@/01 $a01-04-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781474256278 $XH lok: 46191860 5 exp: 46191860 5 1 #EPN 201B/01 $003-12-21 $t22:40:48.476 201C/01 $001-04-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $0109055253X 208@/01 $a01-04-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781474256278 $XH lok: 46191860 8 exp: 46191860 8 1 #EPN 201B/01 $003-12-21 $t22:40:48.479 201C/01 $001-04-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01090552548 208@/01 $a01-04-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781474256278 $XH lok: 46191860 10 exp: 46191860 10 1 #EPN 201B/01 $003-12-21 $t22:40:48.483 201C/01 $001-04-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01090552556 208@/01 $a01-04-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781474256278 $XH lok: 46191860 11 exp: 46191860 11 1 #EPN 201B/01 $003-12-21 $t22:40:48.487 201C/01 $001-04-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01090552564 208@/01 $a01-04-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781474256278 $XH lok: 46191860 13 exp: 46191860 13 1 #EPN 201B/01 $003-12-21 $t22:40:48.491 201C/01 $001-04-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01090552572 208@/01 $a01-04-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781474256278 $XH lok: 46191860 21 exp: 46191860 21 1 #EPN 201B/01 $003-12-21 $t22:40:48.498 201C/01 $001-04-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01090552599 208@/01 $a01-04-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781474256278 $XH lok: 46191860 23 exp: 46191860 23 1 #EPN 201B/01 $003-12-21 $t22:40:48.502 201C/01 $001-04-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01090552602 208@/01 $a01-04-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781474256278 $XH lok: 46191860 24 exp: 46191860 24 1 #EPN 201B/01 $003-12-21 $t22:40:48.539 201C/01 $002-04-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01090805144 208@/01 $a02-04-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781474256278 $XH lok: 46191860 25 exp: 46191860 25 1 #EPN 201B/01 $003-12-21 $t22:40:48.550 201C/01 $001-04-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01090552610 208@/01 $a01-04-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781474256278 $XH lok: 46191860 36 exp: 46191860 36 1 #EPN 201B/01 $003-12-21 $t22:40:48.555 201C/01 $002-04-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01090805152 208@/01 $a02-04-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781474256278 $XH lok: 46191860 54 exp: 46191860 54 1 #EPN 201B/01 $003-12-21 $t22:40:48.567 201C/01 $001-04-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01090552629 208@/01 $a01-04-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781474256278 $XH lok: 46191860 71 exp: 46191860 71 1 #EPN 201B/01 $003-12-21 $t22:40:48.574 201C/01 $002-04-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01090805179 208@/01 $a02-04-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781474256278 $XH lok: 46191860 75 exp: 46191860 75 1 #EPN 201B/01 $003-12-21 $t22:40:48.578 201C/01 $002-04-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01090805187 208@/01 $a02-04-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781474256278 $XH lok: 46191860 107 exp: 46191860 107 1 #EPN 201B/01 $003-12-21 $t22:40:48.582 201C/01 $001-04-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01090552645 208@/01 $a01-04-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781474256278 $XH lok: 46191860 204 exp: 46191860 204 1 #EPN 201B/01 $003-12-21 $t22:40:48.585 201C/01 $001-04-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01090552653 208@/01 $a01-04-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781474256278 $XH lok: 46191860 205 exp: 46191860 205 1 #EPN 201B/01 $003-12-21 $t22:40:48.589 201C/01 $001-04-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01090552661 208@/01 $a01-04-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781474256278 $XH
