Secret Spaces, Forbidden Places Rethinking Culture

In a highly original approach to the study of the construction of culture, this collection of previously unpublished essays explores the topography of the secret and the forbidden, focusing on specific moments in recent cultural and political history. By bringing together writers from different disciplines and different locations, this volume provides a rich and diverse mapping of how the secret and forbidden operate across different subjects and different geographies, extending far beyond physical locations. It is present in domains as different as art, language, literature, and cinema to social and political life. This refreshing and thought-provoking collection of essays will prove invaluable for researchers and students engaged in rethinking culture across and within a range of disciplines.Lloyd, Fran is the author of 'Secret Spaces, Forbidden Places Rethinking Culture' with ISBN 9781571817884 and ISBN 1571817883.
