Mapping the Social Body: Urbanisation, the Gaze, and the Novels of Galdos - North Carolina Studies in the Romance Languages and Literatures
Collin McKinney
Influenced by trends in medicine, town planning and social etiquette, Madrid's middle class viewed urban growth with apprehension in the second half of the nineteenth century. In Mapping the Social Body, Collin McKinney examines manifestations and critiques of that reaction in the work of Benito Perez Galdos, Spain's greatest modern novelist.
