Description: "This book explores the links between concepts of space and place and some of the ways in which cultural expression occurs, focusing in particular on language, literature, translation, pedagogy, film, music, art and the use of iconic imagery in nation-building projects. It presents a theoretical framework for such a discussion, and examines four key facets of that framework, relating each one to the above-mentioned modes of symbolic expression"--
