Opis

The volume comprises different approaches to a dynamic reality of the society - the inhabited space of either a city or a village, seen as a reflection, an extension of identities (individual, collective, cultural, etc.). The Romanian element represents the research core of the papers, offering either "views of Romania" or "views of Romanians", as the title goes.The authors of the papers are master's degree programme students, specialising in Anglo-American Studies, and the papers represent, to a certain extent, the research they conducted within several courses and workshops at George Emil Palade University of Medicine, Pharmacy, Science, and Technology of Târgu Mure (UMPhST).Therefore, the subjects cover a wide range of themes, from the city of Târgu Mure in the 19th century travel literature, to Romanian and foreign perspectives on Bucharest and Transylvanian locations, to legendary Romanian figures, to Romanian perspectives on New York, the Romanian city as a cinema stage, to mention just a few.The list of authors is complemented by the editors of the present volume, professors within the University and also, by close collaborators of the English dept. of our university.
