Following are two important formulations on space as an object of cultural analyses as given to us by scholars:
a) “[Space] informs lifestyle because the geography of your home and office is often determined (and determines) your class and social status. Where you live determines how you live. It informs your work habits and your modes of transport. If, for example, you live in the suburbs, then commuting to and from your place of work occupies much time. The options of driving to work, or using the public transport system are open to you. The time spent on commuting determines the amount of time you have to socialize in the evening after work.”(Nayar).
b) “We have often been told . . . that we now inhabit the synchronic rather than the diachronic, and I think it is at least empirically arguable that our daily life, our psychic experience, our cultural languages, are today dominated by categories of space rather than by categories of time, as in the preceding period of high modernism.” (Jameson)
