Due to the large-scale global transformations of the 20th century, migration literature has become a vibrant genre over the last decades. In these novels, issues of transcultural identity and belonging naturally feature prominently. This study takes a closer look at the ways in which the idea of family informs processes of identity construction. It explores changing roles and meanings of the diasporic family as well as intergenerational family relations in a migration setting in order to identify the specific challenges, problems, and possibilities that arise in this context. This book builds on insights from different fields of family research (e.g. sociology, psychology, communication studies, memory studies) to provide a conceptual framework for the investigation of synchronic and diachronic family constellations and connections. The approach developed in this study not only sheds new light on contemporary British migration literature but can also prove fruitful for analyses of families in literature more generally. By highlighting the relevance and multifaceted nature of doing family, this study also offers new perspectives for transcultural memory studies.

Le père jésuite Louis-Bertrand Castel (1688-1757) a connu son heure de gloire au XVIIIe siècle grâce à son fameux clavecin oculaire. Partant de l'idée qu'il existe une analogie physique entre le son et la couleur, Castel imagine un clavecin qui dispenserait une musique de couleurs - des couleurs préalablement organisées en gamme sur la base de leurs correspondances naturelles avec les sons. Par là, Castel cherche à mettre au jour les principes rationnels qui déterminent l'ordre de la nature et à fonder l'art en raison. Dès lors, l'art en vient à témoigner d'une intelligence divine compatible avec la raison et la musique des couleurs, en ce qu'elle rend ces principes fondateurs plus visibles que tout autre art, s'apparente à une forme de révélation. La musique colorée permet en outre de sauver l'homme de l'ennui, cette langueur qui lui ôte le sentiment d'exister, en assurant la pérennité du mouvement et de la surprise, en renouvelant le plaisir de la variété, en satisfaisant l'inconstance naturelle qui le pousse sans relâche vers d'autres objets de plaisir. De là à promouvoir un art libertin, il n'y a qu'un pas, que Castel franchit à son insu. Cette tendance est d'autant plus troublante que l'ennui, chez Castel, se trouve privé de dimension métaphysique et qu'il autorise de ce fait la recherche de la jouissance, au travers de l'expérience esthétique. Le divertissement a gagné ses lettres de noblesse dans le monde.

In this survey of the burial and settlement evidence of late Iron Age Etruria, Corinna Riva offers a new reading of the socio-political transformations that led to the formation of urban centres in Tyrrhenian central Italy. Through a close examination of burial ritual and the material culture associated with it, Riva traces the transformations of seventh-century elite funerary practices and the structuring of political power around these practices in Etruria, arguing that the tomb became the locus for the articulation of new forms of political authority at urban centres. Challenging established views that deem contact with eastern Mediterranean regions crucial to these developments, Riva offers a radically new interpretation of the so-called Orientalizing material culture, taking a long-term perspective on local changes and east-west contact across the Mediterranean.
