Beschreibungen
<p><span>The essays in </span><span>Muslim American Hyphenations: Cultural Production and Hybridity in the Twenty-first Century</span><span> contest the lack of nuance in the public debates about American Islam and reclaim a self-determined identity by twenty-first century Muslim American writers, artists, and performers. </span><span>Muslim American Hyphenations</span><span> covers a wide spectrum of cultural representation based upon a shared religion that encompasses multiethnic and polylinguistic communities in the American landscape, challenging both the sacred-secular binary and the confines of multiculturalism. The contributors to this volume explore the codes of belonging in different American spheres, from transnational and local negotiations of immigrant and domestic Muslim Americans with nation, race, class, and gender, to the performance of faith in the creative manifestations of these identities. In their analyses, these scholars propose that Muslim American cultural productions provide an alternative space of dissensus and the utopian potentiality of connections with other minoritarian communities.</span></p>

<p></p>
<p><span>Muslim American Hyphenations</span><span> presents critical perspectives on the diverse compositions of hyphenated Muslim American identities in literary, artistic, and performative texts. Scholars analyze the intersections of faith and culture in the expressive modes used by Muslim Americans to contest the domains of secularity, nation, race, gender, and class.</span></p>
