The situation of exiles and migrants stands at the crux of the existential, as well as economicpolitical internationalism of the 20th century. This collection of essays begins by tracing the fundamental presuppositions of sociocultural encounters arising out of migration in the 17th to 19th centuries. Next, the 20thcentury experience of cultural and personal identity faced by those who chose, or were compelled, to leave behind family, homeland, mode of life, and perhaps even language, is explored. Major literary and conematic representations of crosscultural contact and exchange in modern Europe and its (ex)colonies are considered, including the relationship between European societies and their new ethnic minorities. Major intercultural encounters characteristic of 19th and 20th century Europe are tackled, including the postcolonial relationship between European societies and their new ethnic minorities, in which the descendants of Empire and the new subjects of European economic expansion struggle to find their voice. Finally, a close look is given to the specific role of the writer and text in a society of intercultural pluralism, where language itself becomes and eploration of possible voices and identities.
