Drawing on hemispheric studies Indigenous studies and southern theory to decentre British and other European metropoles the collection offers a groundbreaking challenge to national paradigms and traditional literary periodisations and canons by prioritising southern cultural networks in multiple regional centres from Cape Town to Dunedin. Worlding the south examines the dialectics of literary worldedness in ways that recognise inequalities of power textual and material violence and literary and cultural resistance. The collection revises current literary histories of the British world by arguing for the distinctiveness of settler colonialism in the southern hemisphere and by incorporating Indigenous diasporic and south - south perspectives. - - .
