Great Britain is changing, and so is Europe. The aim of this book, therefore, is to reflect upon the processes of (re)creation of art and literature within and against the backdrop of the shifting paradigms of the world as we know it. At a time when the political relations between Great Britain, Europe and the rest of the world are being redefined, this book examines the (de)construction of modern identities through the (de)codification of classical and contemporary mythologies.
Gran Bretaña está cambiando, al igual que Europa. El objetivo de este libro, por lo tanto, es reflexionar sobre los procesos de (re)creación del arte y la literatura dentro del contexto de los paradigmas cambiantes del mundo tal como lo conocemos. En una época en la que se están redefiniendo las relaciones políticas entre Gran Bretaña, Europa y el resto del mundo, este libro examina la (de)construcción de las identidades modernas a través de la (de)codificación de las mitologías clásica y contemporánea.
