VS-Colonial and Postcolonial Literatures: Narrating Ocean Worlds, The Indian Ocean

Lenka Filipova

Comments

This course will explore the Indian Ocean as a space of cultural exchange, migration, and storytelling, where centuries of human and ecological interaction have created a unique, interconnected world. We will investigate how writers, filmmakers, and artists have narrated the histories, ecologies, and diverse communities shaped by the Indian Ocean, while engaging with critical themes such as colonialism, global trade, forced and voluntary migration, and environmental transformation. From the movement of people—enslaved individuals, traders, refugees, and explorers—to the circulation of goods, ideas, and cultural practices, and the shifting ecologies that sustain and challenge these flows, we will explore how the Indian Ocean functions not merely as a passive backdrop but as an active force, shaping both human and non-human interactions across diverse temporal and spatial scales. close
