Franco Moretti: Conjectures on World Literature

For the first time, the prospect of a morphology of global letters?
Tom Nairn: Ukania Under Blair
Great Britain has finally yielded a parliament to Scotland. But the Labour regime in London still clings convulsively to the totems of Ukania, in Tom Nairn’s savage updating of Robert Musil. New Labour’s eupeptic rhetoric of youth as a sure sign of a system being wheeled into the terminal ward.

Emblem of working men and city toffs, cabaret girls and Orange parades—what icons have matched it for multiple meanings?
