The series "Text - Meaning - Context: Cracow Studies in English Language, Literature and Culture" aims at bringing together the long-divorced disciplines of the study of language, literature and culture by inviting scholars working in each of these areas to consider the unique implications of their own field in a larger epistemic context. The interdisciplinary approach of volumes in the series should allow to develop a scholarly discourse which affords a comprehensive picture of English studies.

This book results from joint research on the representations of migration conducted in connection with the Erasmus Intensive Programme entitled «Migration and Narration». The articles focus on various aspects of the migrant experience and try to answer questions about migrant identity and its representations in literature and the media.
