dc.description.abstractTaking “Utopias” and “Heterotopias” as representative sites that cannot save us from power, this paper ascertains that though “campy” in nature, in Susan Sontag’s description of the term, “Homotopic” sites are unnamed whereas the relationships are socially sanctioned; the categorization of the sites, having a physicality, remains stagnant, undiscussed yet they hold ample significance in their functionality. In short, this paper projects the principles of homotopias by providing a critical enquiry of theories for spaces and proposes an alternative site of knowledge-enquiry where literature, theory and everyday life merge to structure a poetic of societal recognition.en_US
