      title = {Ethnographic narratives as world literature : uneven  entanglements in European and South Asian writing /},
      abstract = {This book links world-literary studies with anthropology  and ethnography. It shows how ethnographic narratives can  represent a compelling point of departure for  world-literary explorations. The volume compares the travel  writing and fiction of Robert Louis Stevenson and Rudyard  Kipling as colonial ethnographic narratives; the militant  writings of Carlo Levi and Mahasweta Devi; and the  travelogues and ethnographic fiction of Amitav Ghosh and  the literary journalism of Frank Westerman. Each of these  readings focuses on a set of social, political and  historical circumstances and relies on a dialogue with  anthropological theory and history. This book demonstrates  how imperialism, colonialism, capitalism and ecology are  interdependent, and contributes to methodological debates  within both anthropology and world-literary studies. Lucio  De Capitani is Research Fellow in the Department of  Linguistics and Comparative Cultural Studies at Ca' Foscari  University of Venice, Italy.},
