Creative Cultures of Anglophone Southeast and East Asia (CCASEA): Mapping Literary Networks

These workshops explore the history and multiple legacies of the creative literary cultures of Anglophone Southeast and East Asia. Organised around three nodal cities (Singapore, Kuala Lumpur and Hong Kong), rather than by nation or region, the workshops map lines of literary influence, educational and publishing networks, and focus on key authors and local canon-formation. Convened as initial scoping events for a collaborative research project in partnership with the University of Malaya and City University, Hong Kong, the CCASEA workshops investigate the connected histories and current contexts of Anglophone literature in the region.
