Border Poetics Research Group Rating: 0Rating: 0Rating: 0Rating: 0Rating: 0

Based at the University of Tromsö, Norway, the Border Poetics Research Group sets out to develop theoretical and practical strategies (a "border poetics") for examining the function of these forms of representation in the intersection between territorial borders and aesthetic works. Analysing primarily border-crossing narratives in literary texts, it aims to test two main theses: 1) that narrative and symbolic representation is a central element in border formation and experience; 2) that textual or medial borders within or around aesthetic works are related to the borders represented in these works.
