Książka stanowi pokłosie badań nad literaturą osadniczą i postosadniczą, głównie lubuską, prowadzonych z perspektywy noworegionalnej. Tematem przewodnim jest przestrzeń ujmowana przez pryzmat tropów topografii i rozpatrywana w odniesieniu do powojennej polityki miejsca. Na plan pierwszy wysuwa się tu rola metaforyki przestrzennej w procesie zasiedlania Ziem Zachodnich i Północnych, wyobrażenia arkadii i antyarkadii, sposób istnienia krajobrazu kulturowego polsko-niemieckiego pogranicza i winescape jako jego zielonogórska odmiana.

The contributors take their examples from an amazing variety of contexts and thus prove that the very dynamics of theory is a fascinating phenomenon. Succeeding several recent...
