- Abstract
The article focuses on the graphic novel "From Hell: A Melodrama in Sixteen Part," by Alan Moore, which the author considers to demonstrate a concept of psychogeography and Englishness, noting how the character Jack the Ripper has been absorbed to make up a national character. She discusses how the Thatcherism and Powellism in the novel mirrors the conflict between Englishness as an ethnicity under attack and the equally problematic British identity.
