Sommario/riassunto |
|
The papers in this collection deal with a cultural problem central to the study of the history of exploration: the editing and transmission of the texts in which explorers relate their experiences. The papers chart the transformation of the study of exploration writing from the genres of national epic and scientific reportage to the genre of cultural analysis. As well, they reflect on ongoing changes in our ideas about editorial |

procedures, literary genres, and cultural appropriation. |
