Produktbeschreibung

Mobility, Place, and Displacement in French- and Italian-Speaking Literary Studies explores the issue of spatial mobility as it questions the relationship between the institutional and individual representations, the cartographic productions of state powers, the narratives and images of movement, displacements and walking/writing spaces. The central thesis that runs through all the contributions of the volume is that it is the relationship with spaces, and between spaces, perceptions, histories and images, more than the spaces themselves that allow us to explore our connection to the contemporary world. The book offers key insights on the way French and Italian humanities scholars think the question of mobility from the perspective of the re-examination of space.
