Since the Eighties, California has been endlessly scrutinized, exploited, discussed, and taken as a paradigm of the postmodern condition by a number of influential scholars such as Fredric Jameson, Edward Soja, Mike Davis, Jean Baudrillard. The reader of “From Faraway California” will find in the following pages a comprehensive chart of their ideas and theories related to the topic. The book deals with Pynchon’s California by employing a wide interdisciplinary approach that tackles the “real-and-imagined” space of the region, taking its cue from Soja’s theory of “Thirdspace” as well as from the fields of urban studies, geocriticism, and environmental studies.

Abstract
Since the Eighties, California has been endlessly scrutinized, exploited, discussed, and taken as a paradigm of the postmodern condition by a number of influential scholars such as Fredric Jameson, Edward Soja, Mike Davis, Jean Baudrillard. The reader of “From Faraway California” will find in the following pages a comprehensive chart of their ideas and theories related to the topic. The book deals with Pynchon’s California by employing a wide interdisciplinary approach that tackles the “real-and-imagined” space of the region, taking its cue from Soja’s theory of “Thirdspace” as well as from the fields of urban studies, geocriticism, and environmental studies.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
