Lisa Ahrens employs Foucault's theory of heterotopia, combined with elements of Wolfgang Iser's reader-response theory, to examine the potential of Black British and British Muslim literature to challenge exclusionary boundaries. This approach reveals new perspectives on the intersections between space, power, and literature, enriching the discourses of Cultural and Literary Studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 666g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 226 x 147 x 15 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783837647693\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lisa Ahrens","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44097332248826,"sku":"9783837647693","price":37.47,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646112853016_book.jpg?v=1646636968","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-transformative-potential-of-black-british-an-heterotopic-spaces-and-the-politics-of-destabilisation-9783837647693","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
