Exposing the tensions between the imaginary and real, Duncan and Gregory and a team of leading international contributors focus primarily upon travelers from the 18th and 19th Centuries to pin down the imaginary within the context of imperial power. The contributors focus on travel to three main regions: Africa, South Asia, and Europe - wit the European examples being drawn from Britain, France and Greece.Travel writingTravel in literatureTravel18th centuryTravel19th centuryVoyages, ImaginaryTravel writing.Travel in literature.TravelTravelVoyages, Imaginary.808/.06691820.9355Duncan James S850360Gregory Derek1951-121032FlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910777499103321Writes of passage3765545UNINA
