This book calls for an investigation of the ›borderlands of narrativity‹ - the complex and culturally productive area where the symbolic form of narrative meets other symbolic logics, such as data(base), play, spectacle, or ritual. It opens up a conversation about the ›beyond‹ of narrative, about the myriad constellations in which narrativity interlaces with, rubs against, or morphs into the principles of other forms. To conceptualize these borderlands, the book introduces the notion of »narrative liminality,« which the 16 articles utilize to engage literature, popular culture, digital technology, historical artifacts, and other kinds of texts from a time span of close to 200 years.

The author moves from the case of Gerasim Zelić to ponder on the concept of "Eastern Adriatic", which generally refers to a border area where different religions, political and administrative models, languages, cultures and identities come together. Assuming that the sea is a gigantic text through which the past can be read, the author presents the Eastern Adriatic as an example of mare storia and eventually suggests to apply the concept of "multiple borderlands" to this area, whose history is actually the history of numerous large and small boundaries that deserve a painstaking description.

"Rory Stewart longe à pied le mur d’Hadrien, bâti autour de l’an 120 aux confins de la Britannia romaine pour la protéger des incursions barbares. Sur cette frontière chevauchant celle qui sépare aujourd’hui l’Angleterre de l’Écosse, où le parti indépendantiste est majoritaire, il retrouve son père, Brian, pour un ultime dialogue. Écossais, ils ont servi la Couronne. Le père, sinophone, fut l’un des patrons des services secrets de Sa Majesté en Asie. Le fils, né à Hong Kong en 1973, arabisant, fut gouverneur adjoint en Irak après l’invasion de 2003. Il est député de la circonscription anglaise de Penrith and The Border et ministre. Cet infatigable marcheur a déjà parcouru 9 000 km en Afghanistan en 2002 ; le récit de ce périple est un «chef-d’œuvre tout simplement » selon le New York Times. La description lyrique de paysages sauvages égratignés par la modernité convoque Histoire et mémoire, nouant un dialogue passionné entre Brian et Rory. Ils confrontent leurs vies aux vestiges impériaux de Rome et de Londres, tissant un récit de filiation qui enfante les grands débats de notre temps. À l’heure où le Brexit déchire notre voisin et partenaire, où l’Europe se cherche au péril des nationalismes, populismes et mondialisation, ce document extraordinaire remet l’homme au cœur des enjeux politiques du Vieux Continent"
