Description: This anthology of essays illustrates the growing and necessary interest in the spatial imagination and its interactions and conflicts within a wide range of disciplines. Panoramic on scope, interdisciplinary in substance, Interruptions argues for a powerful and radical rethinking of the dialectics of space and time in such diverse fields as politics, classical and contemporary literature, modern drama, history, film, popular culture, architecture. Interruptions charts both the dynamic impact of the spatial imagination in current thinking, as well as the dubious consequences of its exclusion. Each essay offer a unique perspective around a central theme, that is, the reassertion of a critical spatial perspective in contemporary theory and analyses. Ultimately, Interruptions offers a more critically revealing view of the spatial imagination and interdisciplinary thought.
