• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A cultural history of "e;Englishness"e; and the idea of England since 1960. Brexit thrust long fraught debates about "e;Englishness"e; and the idea of England into the spotlight. About England explores imaginings of English identity since the 1960s in politics, geography, art, architecture, film, and music. David Matless reveals how the national is entangled with the local, the regional, the European, the international, the imperial, the post-imperial, and the global. He also addresses physical landscapes, from the village and country house to urban, suburban, and industrial spaces, and he reflects on the nature of English modernity. In short, About England uncovers the genealogy of recent cultural and political debates in England, showing how many of today's social anxieties developed throughout the last half-century.
