Abstract

This article is a commentary on Elizabeth Dauphinee’s book The Politics of Exile. Its focus is on her displacement – her dual sojourn that is, on the one hand, a physical migration (from Canada to Bosnia for research) and, on the other, a genre migration (from academic to literary writing). The main part of the analysis situates Dauphinee’s contribution among the Balkans War reflections of diverse exilic artists from the former Yugoslavia (writers and a film director), and the article ends by situating Dauphinee’s method within two analytics: Jacques Rancière’s concept of indisciplinarity and Cesare Casarino’s concept of philopoesis.
