Product Description
This issue of new formations returns to some of the concerns that have animated the journal over the last fifteen years. The title 'After Fanon' takes its cue from the Symposium organised by the editorial board in September 2001 to mark the fortieth anniversary of Frantz Fanon's death. The four articles are representative of the intellectual bequeathed by Fanon, covering questions of nationalism and identity in India, Africa, the United States and Latin America. Two articles take different theoretical perspectives on film: Derrida and serial killer movies; and Adorno and Antonioni; and two articles extend the some of the discussions on urban culture in new formation 37. Eighteenth-century Edinburgh and nineteenth-century London are analysed in relation to concepts of flow and spectacle. A review article investigates the recent interest in theories of trauma in cultural studies. In a new departure we also include an in-depth review of last year's Surrealism exhibition at the Tate Modern.
