TRAVEL
WRITING
An increasingly popular genre
-
addressing issues of empire, colonialism,
postcolonialism, globalisation, gender and politics
-
travel writing offers the
reader a movement between the familiar and the unknown.
In this volume, Carl Thompson:
•
introduces the genre, outlining competing definitions and key debates
•
provides a broad historical survey from the medieval period to the
present day
•
explores the autobiographical dimensions of the form
•
looks at canonical and more marginal works, including writing by both
men and women, and both colonial and
postcolonial
texts
•
uses both British and American travelogues to consider the genre's
role in shaping the history of nation.
Concise and practical, Travel Writing is the ideal introduction for those new
to the subject, as well as a crucial overview of current debates in the field.
Carl Thompson is Senior Lecturer in English at Nottingham Trent
University, UK. |
