O knihe
This book aims to study the relation between ecology and the idea of heterotopia configured by Michel Foucault and how this relation is illustrated in contemporary urban fantasy. The idea of heterotopia is basically attributed to places of otherness which are defined as multi-layered, disturbing, incompatible, and transforming. The book will focus on two pioneering works of the genre; Neil Gaiman¿s Neverwhere (1996) and China Mieville¿s Perdido Street Station (2000) which widely explore the idea of heterotopia in their settings. The heterotopic places in these works provide a basis to analyse the controversial relation between humans and nature within the wide borders of fantasy. This book endeavours to figure out in what way a place is ascribed heterotopic features by elements of fantasy in the selected novels and how these fantastic heterotopias function to illustrate the destructive power of human beings on the environment.
