Explores the various representations and imaginations of London in literature and popular culture, from Victorian times to the present day.Imagined Londons explores the diverse ways that Britain’s 'global city' has been imagined and represented in literature, history, the arts, and popular culture, from the mid-nineteenth century to the present day. American and British contributors examine a variety of topics, ranging from poetry to architecture, from dance music to gay pornography, from 'tube' maps to the role of Bangladeshi communities in shaping contemporary London politics. Broadly interdisciplinary and deeply attentive to London’s historical diversity, the book is unified by its attention to a single question: How have the many imaginations and representations of London shaped-and been shaped by-history and culture? The answers provided within this volume offer the chance to view London in surprising new ways.
