My paper will, to the contrary, suggest that the critique of political developmentalism and the turn towards a preference for cultural difference that inaugurated postcolonial studies as we know it may have actually helped to forge a relation between the perspectives of postcolonial theory and empathy. This relation is based on the ultimately individual focus that both imply through their rejection of abstract rational politics, which politically limits them to humanitarianism. My reading of Indra Sinha's Animal's People will show how this novel performs the heavy impact of this entanglement between postcolonial otherness, empathy, and humanitarianism by arguing that the novel ironically restructures its plot and political imaginary to suit the needs of humanitarian empathy that governs the global market for postcolonial literatures."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1080/03080188.2018.1450925"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/62404"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.relation.issn","0308-0188"],["dc.relation.issn","1743-2790"],["dc.title","Postcolonial theory and globalized empathy: from development to difference"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

While cosmopolitan place is projected as stable, time is a more open category in the novel, both in terms of the order of narrative discourse and the temporal explorations into the colonial past that the focalizer/protagonist repeatedly offers. This allows for the often invisible postcolonial actors that both uphold the city in the present and enabled its material manifestation in the past to constantly seep into the text. Its eventual construction of postcolonial coevalness does not derive from a modernist sense of vertigo but from a cosmopolitan awareness that eventually manifests itself in spatiotemporal co-presence. Such insight into the destructive forces of historical movements is the condition of possibility for what Homi Bhabha has referred to as a vigilant global ethics of ambivalence, but always also gravitates towards political hesitation and communal aversion of which recent cosmopolitan novels have been accused."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1515/zaa-2017-0007"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/117728"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DeepGreen Import"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.publisher","De Gruyter"],["dc.relation.eissn","2196-4726"],["dc.relation.issn","0044-2305"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Abteilung Anglistische Literatur- und Kulturwissenschaft"],["dc.title","Cosmopolitan Place, Postcolonial Time, and the Politics of Modernism in Teju Cole’s Open City"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

It assumes that the initially generous protagonist of the play is clandestinely fostering an immanent economy based on the conviction that the world is entirely liable to human transformation through collaboration, reciprocity, and intersubjectivity. These immanent aspirations are, however, contained by greed and more importantly by the felt necessity to invest economic systems with material transcendence and hierarchy. Timon’s often-noted turn towards misanthropism is, therefore, conditioned by his disappointment in humanity’s incapacity to openly actualize the world towards dignity and equilibrium. The play’s specific stance on immanence has severe implications for the generic developments in the latest phase of Shakespeare’s writings. Whereas the major tragedies that preceded Timon projected immanence and autonomy as negative forces that disrupt order, Timon of Athens is the first in a series of plays that seems to bemoan its containment. With this position on immanence, that in the form of tragedy cannot but be contained, the play helped prepare the field for Shakespearean romance, which provides a much wider thematic playing field and generic temporal frame for human immanence to unfold."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1515/ang-2016-0001"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/117704"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DeepGreen Import"],["dc.publisher","De Gruyter Mouton"],["dc.relation.eissn","1865-8938"],["dc.relation.issn","0340-5222"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Abteilung Anglistische Literatur- und Kulturwissenschaft"],["dc.rights","This content is free."],["dc.title","Contained Immanence: Shakespeare’s Timon of Athens between Tragedy and Romance"],["dc.title.subtitle","Shakespeare’s Timon of Athens Between Tragedy and Romance"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
