Ebook: Mocking Bird Technologies : The Poetics of Parroting, Mimicry, and Other Starling Tropes

This volume examines the poetics of bird mimicry: the way birds mimic humans, and the way humans mimic birds. Drawing from 18th-century studies, romantic studies, American studies, 20th-century studies, and postcolonial studies, the collection offers new models for combining comparative and global studies of literature and culture.
