Introduction

This collection brings together scholars and practitioners to explore how literature and technology shape spaces of resistance, belonging, and innovation, from LGBTQ+ Insta-poetry and diaspora testimonies to the geopolitics of Palestine/Israel through Indian perspectives

Spanning thirteen chapters this comprehensive study offers a multidimensional view of how digital interventions are reshaping narratives of conflict and community in the region.Contributors explore diverse themes including internet disruptions, emergent versus residual cultures, colonial guilt, digital storytelling, translation in conflict communication, and the use of social networks for language learning.

  • - Analyzes colonial and postcolonial legacies through new readings of texts and cultural practices.
  • - Offers comparative, interdisciplinary approaches linking literature, digital humanities, and social sciences.
