| Итог: | Edwardianism scarcely exists as a geographical idea. Victorianism and especially Modernism have been given a good deal of geo-critical attention recently, but Edwardian still stands at most for a distinctive London architecture, a twilight age in politics, or perhaps an era in leisure fashion. The reason for its neglect may stem from the relative brevity of the Edwardian period stretching roughly from the turn of the last century to the beginning of WWI. Another reason might be that the geographies of Victorianism and Modernism cover the intervening years sufficiently to obviate the need for a geo-critical study of the era. This essay, therefore, explores the era’s geographical spaces through a number of subject-matters in an attempt to show the period’s genuine geography. |
