Peter Ackroyd is one of the foremost contemporary British
writers focusing on the capital, its history, development and
identity- The London of his novels is a highly idiosyncratic
construct which reflects and derives from its author’s
ideas about the actual city’s nature as well as his concept
of the English literary sensibility. It is an exceptionally
heterogeneous city of enormous diversity and richness of
human experience, moods and emotion, of actions and
events, often originating outside the sites and domains of the
established or mainstream cultural production and social
norms and conventions, and also of the tools through which
these are (re)presented and reenacted. This book presents the
world of Ackroyd’s London novels as a distinct chronotope
determined by specific spatial and temporal properties and
their mutual interconnectedness. It is therefore thematically
organised around six defining aspects of the city as Ackroyd
identifies them: the relationship between its past and present,
its uncanny manifestations, its felonious tendencies, its
inhabitants’ psychogeographic and antiquarian strategies, its
theatricality, and its inherently literary character.
