Transnational Postcolonial Studies in the Twenty-First Century: Infrastructures, Literatures, Applications concerns itself with developments in the field of Postcolonial Studies in the twenty-first century. With its global reach and its showcasing of contributors who range from Early Career Researchers to Senior Scholars from a range of disciplines, including literature, architecture, digital media, and political ecology, this is an edited collection fully committed to exploring the proliferation of the field. The volume traces the trajectory of Postcolonial Studies through three defining categories – infrastructures, literatures and applications – tracking both the theoretical underpinnings and new intersections invited by cultural products and transnational postcolonial discourse in a global reality characterised by decentralisation, new technologies, and mass migration. This volume thus has implications for various literary, anthropological, pedagogical and political contexts, and speaks to how such research might be performed, as demonstrated through case studies and reflective essays.

The application of postcolonial theories to Irish literature remains a contentious issue. Unlike other colonised nations, Ireland shared a long history of political, economic and artistic ties with its empire-building neighbour, Britain. Yet the Irish response to the project of British imperialism bears comparison with postcolonial models of the relationship between colonisers and the colonised. Writing from the Margins of Europe assesses the potential for postcolonial analysis of works by W. B. Yeats, J. M. Synge and James Joyce. In this exploration of postcolonial parallels between these writers, the author focuses on four core issues: historiography, nationalism, language and displacement.

The articles in this volume represent a wide range of perspectives on the literary art of Ali Smith; one of the most significant figures in the field of contemporary British literature. Focussing on concepts of visual and linguistic representation, these papers reflect Smith's own preoccupations with narrative and language; time and myth; gender and identity. The Literary Art of Ali Smith reflects the inherent complexities in Smith's literary output, as well as the compassion and subversion inherent in her work. The volume offers new insights and analysis into some of Smith's most prominent novels, novellas, short stories and essays.
