Skyscraping Frontiers: The Skyscraper as Heterotopia in the 20th-Century American Novel and Film - Contributions to English and American Literary Studies (CEALS)
Sascha Klein
This study models the skyscraper as a complex network of actors and retraces its initial assemblage during the 19th century to its evolution into a smart structure from the mid-20th century onwards by looking at a great number of US-American novels and movies. It connects classic spatial theories with concepts and methods of ANT and Urban Studies.
