Urban Space in Contemporary British Fiction

Abstract

Ovaj diplomski rad analizira urbani prostor u pet romana suvremene britanske književnosti. Romani su Utjeha u naručju neznanaca (Ian McEwan), Buddha iz predgrađa i Crni Album (Hanif Kureishi), Trik je nastaviti disati (Janice Galloway), Kako je kasno bilo, kako kasno (James Kelman). U diplomskom radu koriste se pojmovi psihogeografije i nemjesta kako bi se prikazao ne samo odnos između pojedinca i urbanog okruženja, već i percepcija protagonista na urbani prostor. Rad istražuje flaneriju, izgradnju identiteta te problematiku muško-ženskih odnosa u kontekstu urbanog prostora.

This diploma paper analyses urban space in five selected novels: Ian McEwan’s The Comfort of Strangers, Hanif Kureishi’s The Buddha of Suburbia and The Black Album, Janice Galloway’s The Trick Is to Keep Breathing, and James Kelman’s How Late It Was, How Late. The paper uses the concepts of psychogeography and non-places to demonstrate the relationship between the individual and the urban setting and the protagonists’ perceptions of urban space. The paper explores issues such as flânerie, identity formation, male-female relationships.
