Textul de pe ultima copertă
This collection shows how literary spaces contribute to understanding, changing, or challenging notions of mobility and physical spaces of our lived world. This project draws from various disciplines—such as geography, sociology, political science, gender studies, and poststructuralist thought—to posit the productive capabilities of literature in examining the politics of movement and spatial transformations. At the same time, this volume shows how literary art offers alternatives to oppressive institutions, practices, and systems of thought. In this way, this book is more than a collection of essays interpreting pieces of literature, it gestures outward to our space and encourages the creation of new spaces that meet the needs and desires of people, not institutions determined to control our movement, actions, ideologies, and thought. This volume outlines, diagrams, and maps the ways in which literature informs resistance, movement, and space.
