Recenzii
“This book has the potential to make a real contribution to thinking through some of the “other” spaces that figure so importantly—but often so vaguely—in literary and cultural texts. The collection’s broad range of texts, authors, regions, and time periods provides crucial methodological support for the central contention that hinterlands are necessarily multiplicitous and blurry both geographically and ideologically.”
Mary Wilson, Associate Professor, English and Communication, University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, USA
“. . . this is an original perspective on hinterlands, as the book broadens the perspective both geographically and conceptually, pointing to the “hybrid nature of hinterlands” . . . The material is timely. Discussions of place and space generally and hinterlands specifically are very relevant. Considering the very broad scope of the book, geographically and culturally seen, its potential shelf-life is likely long as scholarly emphasis regarding culture and geographical areas may shift over time.”
