Miranda: Revue Pluridisciplinaire du Monde Anglophone (Sep 2018)
Introduction – New ways ever free
Abstract
The present article is an introduction to an issue of Miranda devoted to David Bowie’s landscapes and heritage in the wake of a one-day conference held at the University Toulouse-Jean Jaurès in December 2016. Setting the stage for a succession of close investigations into Bowie’s multi-faceted career, its influences and its own influential power, it aims to survey and foreground various components of a complex body of work, which represents a kaleidoscope of the dreams and disarrays, of the trends, images and dissonances that keep haunting our contemporary world.
