وصف الكتاب:
(Imperial Geography) examines the influence of the colonial context on both E. M. Forster’s conception of geography in A Passage to India (1924), and Albert Camus’s conception of geography in The Stranger (1942), by applying Said’s contrapuntal reading where the focus will be on Said’s ideas of the structure of attitude and reference in order to highlight several key ideas related to geography, such the ways in which geography is presented or represented in the novels, and the functionality of this representation in the struggle over geography. This book will also study the impact of Camus’s ideas of the absurd and Forster’s modernism on the representation of the Oriental geography. Edward Soja’s Thirdspace theory will also be used to help decipher the representation of Forster’s and Camus’s imperial geography.
