Spatiality has risen to become a key concept in literary and
cultural studies, with critical focus on the spatial turn
presenting a new approach to the traditional literary analyses of
time and history.
Robert T. Tally Jr. explores differing aspects of the spatial in
literary studies today, providing:
- An overview of the spatial turn across literary theory, from
historicism and postmodernism to postcolonialism and
globalization
- Introductions to the major theorists of spatiality, including
Michel Foucault, David Harvey, Edward Soja, Erich Auerbach, Georg
Luk cs, and Fredric Jameson
- Analysis of critical perspectives on spatiality, such as the
writer as map-maker, literature of the city and urban space, and
the concepts of literary geography, cartographics and
geocriticism.
This clear and engaging study presents readers with a thought
provoking and illuminating guide to the literature and criticism of
space .
