London has provided the setting and inspiration for a host of

literary works in English, from canonical masterpieces to the

popular and ephemeral. Drawing upon a variety of methods and

materials, the essays in this volume explore the London of Langland

and the Peasants' Rebellion, of Shakespeare and the Elizabethan

stage, of Pepys and the Restoration coffee house, of Dickens and

Victorian wealth and poverty, of Conrad and the Empire, of Woolf

and the wartime Blitz, of Naipaul and postcolonial immigration, and

of contemporary globalism. Contributions from historians, art

historians, theorists and media specialists as well as leading

literary scholars exemplify current approaches to genre, gender

studies, book history, performance studies and urban studies. In

showing how the tradition of English literature is shaped by

representations of London, this volume also illuminates the

relationship between the literary imagination and the society of

one of the world's greatest cities.
