More about the book

The book explores the revival of the flâneur in modern Anglophone literature, emphasizing its ethical evolution. It examines how contemporary depictions of flânerie engage with concepts of ethical subjectivity, utilizing Michel Foucault's ideas on the 'aesthetics of existence' and Judith Butler's theories on precariousness. Through this lens, the study reveals how the flâneur remains a relevant figure, reflecting on social and moral complexities in today's literary landscape.
