注記

Summary: "The years between 1850 and 1930 witnessed the first largescale migration of peoples from East Asia and South Asia to North America and the emergence of the US as an imperial power in the Pacific. This period also produced the first instances of Asian North American writing, theater, and film. This exciting collection examines how the many literary and cultural works from this period approached questions of migration, exclusion, and identity. Covering an extensive ranges of topics including anticolonialist writing, the erotics of queer modernist poetry, interracial desire, and the racial gaze in silent film, the book shows the diverse and multiethnic nature of literary and cultural production from a crucial period in modern formations of race as well as literary and cultural aesthetics."-- Provided by publisher
