Description

Novels, Maps, Modernity: The Spatial Imagination, 1850-2000

This book offers a new perspective on how space has been represented in modern fiction. Eric Bulson explores the role of cartographic devices in shaping novelistic space from the mid-nineteenth century to the end of the twentieth.

Through a close analysis of literary maps and guidebooks, as well as the "cartographic encounters" of key authors such as Melville, Joyce, and Pynchon, Bulson reveals a complex story about capitalism, urbanization, empire, and world war. This thought-provoking study provides an original argument about space and the modern novel.
