Summary "The Mediterranean island of Cyprus is the site of enduring political, military, and economic conflict. This interdisciplinary collection takes Cyprus as a geographical, cultural and political point of reference for understanding how conflict is mediated, represented, reconstructed, experienced, and transformed. Through methodologically diverse case studies of a wide range of topics--including public art, urban spaces, and print, broadcast and digital media--it assembles an impressively multifaceted perspective, one that provides broad insights into the complex interplay of culture, conflict, and identity"--Back cover
