Sloughing off Empire: "Multi-monolingualism" in Daljit Nagra's British Museum"

Abstract

This chapter was inspired by curiosity about the linguistic evolution of British poet Daljit Nagra (born 1966), as evidenced in his three original collections of poetry, Look We Have Coming to Dover! (2007), Tippoo Sutan's Incredible White-Man-Eating Tiger Toy-Machine!!! (2011) and British Museum (2017). While the first two display a multilingual or hybrid pyrotechnics, in British Museum there is a noticeable change to a more classic, understated, monochrome style.
