Transnational Crime Fiction - Mobility, Borders and Detection (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2020): Maarit Piipponen, Helen Mantymaki,... Transnational Crime Fiction - Mobility, Borders and Detection (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2020)

R3,624 Discovery Miles 36 240 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Focusing on contemporary crime narratives from different parts of the world, this collection of essays explores the mobility of crimes, criminals and investigators across social, cultural and national borders. The essays argue that such border crossings reflect on recent sociocultural transformations and geopolitical anxieties to create an image of networked and interconnected societies where crime is not easily contained. The book further analyses crime texts' wider sociocultural and affective significance by examining the global mobility of the genre itself across cultures, languages and media. Underlining the global reach and mobility of the crime genre, the collection analyses types and representations of mobility in literary and visual crime narratives, inviting comparisons between texts, crimes and mobilities in a geographically diverse context. The collection ultimately understands mobility as an object of study and a critical lens through which transformations in our globalised world can be examined.
