The first book published in either English or Spanish about the
cultural significance of Maradona. Covers Maradona as portrayed in
fiction literature and cinema, documentary films, non-fiction
literature, mass media and music, among other platforms. Includes
chapters on Maradona as represented in the culture and media of
Argentina, Italy, Mexico, Spain and the UK, highlighting the global
appeal of a volume that is already focused on an international
figure. By discussing how a sporting icon is constructed, codified,
and imagined in popular culture, the book's relevance goes beyond
the specific case of Maradona and appeals to any scholars and
students interested in the links between sport, culture, and
society.

Utopia, Equity and Ideology in Urban Texts: Fair and Unfair Cities
explores the complex interrelations of three key critical topics
across a diverse range of urban writing. Interrogating the links
and tensions between aesthetic and political priorities in the
representation and imagining of urban life, the volume engages with
work from a wide variety of linguistic and cultural origins and
across a range of textual practices having the urban phenomenon as
a common framing concern. Individual contributions discussing genre
and literary fiction, poetic writing, documentary and essayistic
texts, planning manifestos and municipal communications materials
serve to demonstrate that the nuanced treatments of urban
experience and potential which may be gleaned from across this
textual spectrum act as a pragmatic corrective to purely conceptual
approaches. As such, the volume consolidates the emerging dialogue
between the fields of utopian studies and literary urban studies,
understanding these as complementary approaches to the reading of
the city and its textual prolongations.
