Books by Anna Bernard

Rhetorics of Belonging describes the formation and operation of a category of Palestinian and Israeli "world literature" whose authors actively respond to the expectation that their work will "narrate" the nation, invigorating critical debates about the political and artistic value of national narration as a literary practice.

Edward Said continues to fascinate and stir controversy, nowhere more than with his classic work Orientalism. Debating Orientalism brings a rare mix of perspectives to an ongoing polemic. Contributors from a range of disciplines take stock of the book's impact and appraise its significance in contemporary cultural politics and philosophy.
