description | This issue of Études britanniques contemporaines explores the posterity of the ‘State of England novel’ category to understand how 20th– and 21st–century British literature and visual arts have addressed the social and political reality of Britain. More specifically even, the articles gathered here try to understand how fiction, drama, poetry or visual culture have contributed to imagine the nation’s sense of identity in all its diversity and fluidity. Representation is analysed as a form of collective intelligence, working self reflexively to embody the body politics in its full historicity. |
