Air Travel Fiction and Film: Cloud People explores how fiction and film have transformed our perceptions and representations of contemporary air travel, suggesting that the assimilation of the sky into our cultural imaginary and lifestyle has metamorphosed human society into "Cloud People."
Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 204 pages
Publication date: 05 August 2021
Publisher: Springer Nature Switzerland AG
Air Travel Fiction and Film: Cloud People delves into the captivating evolution of fiction and film over the past four decades, reshaping our perceptions and representations of contemporary air travel. This interdisciplinary exploration offers a comprehensive analysis of a diverse array of international cultural productions, unveiling the paradigms and narratives that shape our current imagination of air mobility. Erica Durante posits a groundbreaking hypothesis, suggesting that fiction and film have transformed the Airworld, encompassing airplanes and airport infrastructures, into a significant anthropological space endowed with social significance and identity. By integrating the sky into our cultural imaginary and lifestyle, she argues, human society has undergone a remarkable metamorphosis, evolving into "Cloud People." This book not only offers a fresh perspective on contemporary fiction but also fills a crucial gap in the study of globalization within literary and film studies.
