| Резюме: |
The Textual Life of Airports shows how airports demand to be read. Working at the intersection of literary studies and cultural theory, Schaberg tracks airport stories in American literature, as well as in a range of visual texts (film, airport art, magazine illustrations).

The Textual Life of Airports accounts for how airports appear in literature throughout the twentieth-century, while also exam. |
