Abstract/Description
This paper investigates place and positionality in the regional novel against a background of evolving trends in geographical scholarship of place and placelessness. In re-examining the representation of Glasgow in the urban regional novel, it proposes that a qualitative difference exists between rural and urban epistemologies which relates to the profoundly temporal essence of 'cityness'. Aspects of both multi-dimensionality in urban time-space and of the city as the locus for working-class oppression are reviewed in the context of a selection of urban imaginings.
