Complexity has long been recognized as central to urban life and has
recently even been proposed as the key characteristic of the city suitable
to serve as an integrating paradigm for urban research generally. However,
despite a widely perceived affinity between the city and both the novel and
film
-
and the wealth of research on the city in literature and film
-,
the
specific issue of how urban complexity is
represent^ďhas
received little explicit
scholarly attention. From the perspective of literary and cultural studies, this
volume explores literary and filmic representations of urban complexity.
Geographically, almost half of the essays in this
-volume are
concerned with
New York City as arguably the epitome of the
urlţan.
Further essays offer
discussions of other North American cities such as Los Angeles, Chicago, or
Mexico City, as well as comparative views beyond North America. In their
exploration of various facets of urban complexity, the essays cover a broad
range of topics
-
mobility,
intercultural
encounters and cosmopolitanism, crime,
violence and trauma, urban
utopia
and dystopia,
socio-cultural
heterogeneity, or
conflicts over the use of urban space. With complexity increasingly becoming
a focus of urban research across the disciplines, this volume contributes to the
discussion by showing how analyses of literary and filmic urban imaginaries
can point out the seismographic potential of urban cultural expression and
can thus help to understand key developments in urban agglomerations in
North America and beyond.
