Literary Cartographies: Spatiality, Representation, and Narrative
addresses key aspects of narrative mapping while arguing for the
significance of spatiality in comparative literary studies.
Literary Cartographies surveys a broad expanse of literary
historical territories, including romance and realism, modernism
and imperialism, and the postmodern play of spaces in the era of
globalization. As such, this collection also provides a
representative sample of work being done in this area by spatially
oriented critics across a range of periods, languages, and
literatures. Drawing upon the resources of spatiality studies and
comparative literature, this collection of essays explores the ways
authors use both strictly mimetic and more fantastic means to
figure forth the 'real-and-imagined' spaces of their respective
worlds. Examining diverse texts and spaces, the contributors to
Literary Cartographies demonstrate how a variety of romantic,
realist, modernist, and postmodernist narratives represent the
changing social spaces of their world, and of our own world system
today.
