Synopsis "Influence and Confluence: East and West: A Global Anthology on the Short Story"

These twenty-eight papers from the 14th International Conference on the Short Story in English are excellent representations of the more than 150 scholarly papers given at the conference. For the first time, this collection features a majority of writers from neither Europe nor North America. This conference, entitled Influence and Confluence: East and West, was held in Shanghai, China, our first Asian venue, and the papers reflect many of the more than 40 different cultures which were present there. This conference brought writers of fiction in English (Irish, British, American, Canadian, Australian, Caribbean, South-African, Indian, Sri Lankan, Indonesian, etc.) and writers who have had their work translated into English together with scholars of the short story. Writers examined include the traditional ones like Sherwood Anderson, James Joyce, Alaine Robbe-Grillet, Alice Munro and Cynthia Ozick, and more recent ones like Rebecca Harding Davis, Carol Shield, Yiyun Li, Ha Jin, Wang Anyi, and Russell Leong. These papers also include analysis of the short story form itself, particularly in emerging subgenres such as "microfiction" or "flash fiction," as well as a reexamination of what exactly constitutes the short story genre. We know you will enjoy this collection of excellent scholarly works.
