In the Humanities, notions of coloniality and postcoloniality are usually entangled with nation states that are, by nature, multilingual and multicultural. The societies of each of these nations are further stratified based on hierarchies of economic and social-political classifications. In other words, motivated and maintained by and through power and notions of telos, differences of race, sexuality, caste, and religion exist in differing ways. Literatures of these differences then occupy their space(s) under the larger category of ‘postcolonial literature(s)’.

Edgar Allan Poe worked for a double audience (the popular and the critical), in double tones and manners (grim and mocking, metaphysical and pseudo-scientific). Whether he strove for alternance or interdependence between the terms “grotesque” and “arabesque” which he used to categorize his own narratives, critics such as G. R. Thompson and Dennis Eddings have argued that the former – more visible in tales such as “King Pest,” “Some Words with a Mummy,” “Lionizing,” and “Loss of Breath” -  underscored the carnivalesque, the satirical, and the hoaxical.

Call for Papers

How does your creative work and/or scholarship engage with boundaries? Which boundaries mark its edges? How extensive are its stakes? What limits—aesthetic, geographical, social, political, ethical—does your work challenge, secure, or redraw? What spaces do you seek to preserve? What spaces need creating—and for whom? And how porous will their boundaries be?
