Literary works do not only provide reflections of the city - depictions of the city as an aesthetically compelling setting - but the literary reflection of the city also offers a critical reflection on the city. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHow can spatial difference be conceived in cities that are changing beyond the form of the classical modern metropolis of the early 20th century? How can one think of the relation between individual urban subjects and their urban environment, when neither spaces nor discourses of the city provide them with an answer to the question where they might \"belong\"? How does the human body interact with its urban surroundings, and how should technological mediations be thought of? This book approaches these questions through analysing literary texts, focusing on concepts like heterotopia, non-place and the posthuman. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will be of interest to interdisciplinary scholars and students of the city, particularly in the fields of Urban Studies, Literary Studies, Geography, and Architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Daan Wesselman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032527374\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032527376\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/30\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 154\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.34d","brand":"Daan Wesselman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46721483833599,"sku":"9781032527376","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f1ba4aed-24ae-44ed-94f6-e24c9cb161e0.jpg?v=1742753003","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/reflecting-on-the-city-through-daan-wesselman-9781032527376","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
