Coda: Flying Over.Air Travel Fiction and Film: Cloud People explores how, over the past four decades, fiction and film have transformed our perceptions and representations of contemporary air travel. Adopting an interdisciplinary approach, the book provides a comprehensive analysis of a wide range of international cultural productions, and elucidates the paradigms and narratives that constitute our current imaginary of air mobility. Erica Durante advances the hypothesis that fiction and film have converted the Airworld—the world of airplanes and airport infrastructures—into a pivotal anthropological place that is endowed with social significance and identity, suggesting that the assimilation of the sky into our cultural imaginary and lifestyle has metamorphosed human society into “Cloud People.” In its examination of the representations of air travel as an epicenter of today’s world, the book not only illustrates a novel perspective on contemporary fiction, but fills an important gap inthe study of globalization within literary and film studies. .Studies in Mobilities, Literature, and Culture,2946-4846Literature, Modern20th centuryLiterature, Modern21st centuryFictionLiteratureCultureMotion picturesHistoryHuman geographyCultural geographyContemporary LiteratureFiction LiteratureWorld LiteratureGlobal and International CultureFilm and TV HistorySocial and Cultural GeographyLiterature, Modern20th century.Literature, Modern21st century.Fiction.Literature.Culture.Motion picturesHistory.Human geography.Cultural geography.Contemporary Literature.Fiction Literature.World Literature.Global and International Culture.Film and TV History.Social and Cultural Geography.809.3932161800Durante Ericaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut318754MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910484401503321Air Travel Fiction and Film2251891UNINA
