Inter-imperiality
In Inter-imperiality Laura Doyle theorizes the co-emergence of empires, institutions, language regimes, stratified economies, and literary cultures over the longue dur e. To study literature is therefore, Doyle argues, to attend to world-historical processes of imaginative and material co-formation as they have unfolded through successive eras of vying empires. Weaving together feminist, decolonial, and dialectical theory, she shows how inter-imperial competition has generated a systemic stratification of gendered, racialized labor, while literary and other arts have helped both to constitute and to challenge this world order.
To make this case, Doyle analyzes imperial-economic processes across centuries and continents in tandem with inter-imperially It is also to understand oral, performed, and written literatures as power-transforming resources for the present and future.
