这本书提出了一个新的概念“亚洲散居”，创造了亚裔美国人，亚裔加拿大人和亚裔澳大利亚人的身份之间的联系。从黑人散居地的可比研究，它追溯了殖民主义，移民和排斥这三个人口共享的历史。这三个国家的亚洲诗人的作品为理解亚洲身份如何在国家和跨国流动的交叉点上出现提供了丰富的地形，诗人的主题和形式选择反映了社会和文化历史的不同压力，以及亚洲作家在其他国家的影响。流散诗学认为，种族化和民族化的“亚洲”身份往往源于跨国政治团结，从第三世界反对殖民主义的斗争到美国民权运动的全球影响力。事实上，我表明，亚洲作家否认国家归属，因为他们经常声称它，把亚洲散居作家在一个关键的距离，他们写的国家空间。作为第一个比较亚裔美国人，亚裔加拿大人和亚裔澳大利亚作家的完整研究，这本书提供了必要的历史和文化背景，以了解亚洲写作在每个国家的独特发展，同时还提供了对Janice Mirikitani，Fred Wah，Ouyang Yu，Myung Mi Kim和Cathy Park Hong等作家作品的密切分析。
This book advances a new concept of the “Asian diaspora” that creates links between Asian American, Asian Canadian, and Asian Australian identities. Drawing from comparable studies of the black diaspora, it traces the histories of colonialism, immigration, and exclusion shared by these three populations. The work of Asian poets in each of these three countries offers a rich terrain for understanding how Asian identities emerge at the intersection of national and transnational flows, with the poets’ thematic and formal choices reflecting the varied pressures of social and cultural histories, as well as the influence of Asian writers in other national locations. Diasporic Poetics argues that racialized and nationally bounded “Asian” identities often emerge from transnational political solidarities, from Third World struggles against colonialism to the global influence of the American civil rights movement. Indeed, I show that Asian writers disclaim national belonging as often as they claim it, placing Asian diasporic writers at a critical distance from the national spaces within which they write. As the first full-length study to compare Asian American, Asian Canadian, and Asian Australian writers, the book offers the historical and cultural contexts necessary to understand the distinctive development of Asian writing in each country, while also offering close analysis of the work of writers such as Janice Mirikitani, Fred Wah, Ouyang Yu, Myung Mi Kim, and Cathy Park Hong.
