Plastic Tagore

This book reinterprets Tagore's ideas using the concept of plasticity and challenging conventional views on education, identity, and literature. It goes beyond the existing East-West dialogue, providing a transnational re-evaluation of Tagore's concepts.

Hiding in Caverns Formed from Old Roots

Yu Xuanji (c. 843-868) is one of the most interesting poets in premodern Chinese literature, and her approximately fifty extant poems include some of the most arresting writing from the Tang dynasty--a period known as the golden age of Chinese poetry.

The Prosthetic Arts of Moby-Dick

The Prosthetic Arts of Moby-Dick offers the first book-length study of how disability shapes one of the world's most iconic novels. Rather than see Ahab's lost limb as a deficiency, it explores the way that his prosthesis becomes both a means to power and a key figure for understanding the role that Islamic cultures plays in the novel's plot and form.
