Abstract Anna Frajlich was exiled from her homeland in 1969 and arrived in the United States a year later. This article traces through her poetry and prose the arc of Frajlich's residence in New York, from wary foreigner, residing in windswept Brooklyn, up to her present status as retired Columbia University faculty member who has made her home on Manhattan's Upper East Side. In other words, from her earliest poem about Brooklyn in 1973 to poems in which she describes events from her apartment on the Upper East Side, published in early 2021.

Abstract:
AbstractThe metaphorical phrases Daughter Zion and Daughter Jerusalem are to be understood as appositional genitives referring to the city of Jerusalem in spite of a recent proposal to the contrary. They are part of a larger literary and cultural deposit of personifying the city and should be interpreted in that light. The kinship connotations of the city as "daughter" are then explored and located in the larger root metaphor of YHWH's household, along with certain of the city's other roles (e.g. spouse, widow and mother).

Full of morbid humour and painfully honest narrations, Laura Hird’s stories— mainly set in the city of Edinburgh— deal with relationships of power, family values and her narratives always offer her unique view on the city she was born in and its people. Through these stories, she presents her unparalleled perspective on the beauty of some of the city’s hidden locations which are not portrayed by others. As she mentions in Dear Laura, Hird considers herself to be a ‘constipated romantic’, and that is simply a great way to summarise her work, as her way of portraying life through writing is not

Young's argument for a group-differentiated, culturally pluralist form of social life is grounded in her compelling critiques of universalism and the dominant distributive paradigm of justice. Rejecting ‘the logic of identity’ that suppresses difference, and models of justice in which power is not seen as relational, she offers an alternative vision of social life that includes and empowers groups on their own terms. ‘City life’, which allows persons and groups to interact in common spaces without dissolving into unity, serves as her normative ideal.

Abstract Edith Wharton’s early novella, “Bunner Sisters,” shows the author’s engagement with ecological thinking from early in her career. Despite her sometimes negative comments on cities, Wharton’s fiction reveals the appeal that the urbanscape held for her imagination. An ecocritical approach, informed by urban ecology, traces in “Bunner Sisters” Wharton’s understanding of the city as a dynamic entity made up of multiple interdependencies that include both animate (human and non-human) and inanimate matter.

Abstract:
Vidutė Gumbytė (1949–2021), who was known as Rožytė (Rosie) by residents of the city, strolled the streets of Vilnius for almost five decades. Her story was unique, her style of fashion was eccentric, her lifestyle was idiosyncratic. In this article, I analyse Vidutė Gumbytė-Rožytė’s story as a Vilnius legend. I argue that Vilnius residents were fascinated by her freedom from social norms, her unusual sense of fashion, and the mystique that surrounded her persona. Her story is a story about the city of Vilnius, which became freer, wealthier, and more tolerant of otherness in post-Soviet times.

Although he is already a free man living in the 1950-60s America, Milkman is alienated from his historical roots because of the influence from his father Macon

Abstract:
In 1549, Juana Gelofa Pelona, an enslaved African woman, was a witness in a legal case in the city of Santo Domingo, on the island of Hispaniola. The defendant, Francisco Bravo, was accused of killing his wife, Catalina de Tinoco, and presented Juana as his witness to testify on his behalf. Both Francisco and Catalina had been Juana’s enslavers; and, Catalina's family, in whose possession Juana had lived for multiple generations, warned her not to testify in favor of Francisco. Nonetheless, she testified with conviction, despite being threatened and punished severely by her new enslavers who r

This article explores the response within the Seventh-day Adventist Church after Ellen G. White’s death to the dual emphases in her writings on the city and rural living. On one hand she strongly encouraged large Adventist institutions and families raising children to locate out of the cities. This was because of the advantages natural surroundings have on physical, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing, and to shield children and young adults from the evils and temptations of the city. While she recognized the evils in the city and God’s impending judgments, she aggressively pushed church leader

Abstract:
Calgary's MoMo Mixed Ability Dance Theatre imagines a particular role for itself within the city. The company takes its name from the eponymous heroine of Michael Ende's children's novel, Momo. She is a young girl with a gift for listening who lives in the ruin of an amphitheatre at the edge of a city. Momo understands reality from an unusual perspective and sense of time. This affords her a strength that she uses to rescue the city from the men in grey suits who are bent on overtaking it. Her struggle against convention and her commitment to her place and time suggest also MoMo Mixed Ability

This article suggests that over recent decades Catalan literary criticism has paid too little attention to the aesthetic attributes of Catalan literature and emphasised the social, political and cultural at the expense of discussions of narrative poetics. Through an analysis of Montserrat Roig’s metaphorical use of the city in her first novel Ramona, adéu, I put forward the view that the aesthetic features of Catalan literature need to be re-claimed. This article provides a critical analysis of the aesthetic importance of Roig’s representation of the city in her first novel and argues that she

In the Urals’ modern poetry, Ekaterina Simonova is one of the most powerful and interesting poets with a distinctly own voice. The article deals with Simonova’s poetic geography, limited to the Ural region. Simonova came out of the so called «Nizhny Tagil poetry school», Yevgeny Turenko was her and other Tagil poets’ teacher. Since 2013, she has been living in Ekaterinburg, but Nizhny Tagil retains its central importance in her poetry as a city of childhood and youth, a city of poetic origins, a place of memory, and empirically, a city where her parents live and where she visits regularly, so

In this paper the scant information preserved on Glorvina Fort is presented, as well as an analysis on her travel account. The narrative of Fort experiences in Tangier is strongly conditioned by her position as a foreign woman, and by her nearly e

Abstract:
This article examines the representation of walking and the narrativization of borders in Troubles-era Belfast in Anna Burns’s 2018 novel Milkman. I argue that the protagonist, Middle Sister, develops her own narrative form and walking method as ‘tactics’ to challenge the city’s imposed sectarian geographies and as a response to navigating a city of intense surveillance. In her narrativization, Middle Sister replaces place references with her own complex naming system and lexicon and negotiates urban space by ‘reading-while-walking’. As a result, Middle Sister attempts to dislocate the politic

These foundational pursuits inspired her to become an ardent cooperator affiliated with the Garden Cities movement and to serve as a sociologist seeking to kindle a “new civic spirit” for post -World War I reconstruction.

Abstract This essay builds on Priscilla Parkhurst Ferguson’s pioneering inquiry on reading and writing Paris as the site of a democratizing and modernizing process and, more specifically, on her approach to Jules Vallès’s “performance of politics” in Le Tableau de Paris and L’Insurgé. I examine the ways in which Vallès’s reading of the Paris of the early 1880s and excavation of the multilayered city’s past and cultural representations help foster the return of repressed voices and collective memories. Using the trope of the city as palimpsest, I argue that the critical power of nostalgia for r

In 1837, Margaret Prior became the first female missionary for the American Female Moral Reform Society. She traveled throughout the poorest neighborhoods in New York City’ entering barrooms, brothels, and sickrooms. Based on an analysis of Prior’s missionary reports, published in the society’s periodical and included in her memoir, this essay shows how Prior exerted an ethos of presence. Her willingness to traverse the seediest sections of the city, call on any person, and address any need exerted a powerful ethos in the communities she served and among the audiences who read and heard about
