- Summary:
- One can approach the notion of otherness or alterity in various ways: politically, aesthetically, ethically, culturally, religiously and sexually. Lilia Melani defines the other as an individual who is perceived by the group as not belonging, as being different in some fundamental way, as lacking essential characteristics possessed by the group. The collection of essays 'Notions of Otherness' addresses many of these approaches as ways of interrogating how varied yet how similar they are in relation to the individual literary texts.
