Reverberating Past: Interdisciplinary Perspectives on the Art of Nostalgia is a bipartite edited collection, and its singularity lies in problematizing the discourse of nostalgia seamlessly intertwining creative works with critical essays to captivate its intended readership. Its significance transcends the realm of nostalgia studies, rendering it a valuable resource for scholars within the field of cultural studies. Expanding upon existing scholarship, this anthology reconceptualizes nostalgia studies by integrating new dimensions, disciplines, and cultural identities within the context of a post-pandemic framework. All contents in each section are designed to facilitate a rigorous and focused investigation of selected texts and themes within nostalgia studies and cognate academic fields, offering significant contributions for academics and professionals in the field. All literary works are preceded by a brief introduction that engages in a thoughtful dialogue. These introductions are designed to furnish readers with the necessary context, insight, and a more nuanced understanding of the themes and motivations that underpin each piece, thereby forging a connection between the individual works and the editorial vision that unites them. By this means, they not only augment the reader’s engagement but also accentuate the collaborative nature of the collection, prompting a critical reflection on the dynamic interplay between the author’s intent and the curatorial decisions of the editors.
