Campbell looks at works by pilgrims, crusaders, merchants, discoverers, even armchair fantasists such as Mandeville, as well as the writings of Marco Polo, Columbus, and Walter Raleigh. According to Campbell, these travel accounts are exotic because they bear witness to alienated experiences; European travelers, while claiming to relate fact, were often passing on monstrous projections. She contends that their writing not only documented but also made possible the conquest of the peoples whom she travelers described, and she shows how travel literature contributed to the genesis of the modern novel and the modern life sciences.ACLS Fellows’ publications.ACLS Humanities E-Book.Voyages and travelsTravel in literatureExoticism in literatureTravel writingHistoryDifference (Psychology) in literatureEuropeansForeign countriesHistoryEuropean literatureRenaissance, 1450-1600History and criticismLiterature, MedievalHistory and criticismGeography, MedievalVoyages and travels.Travel in literature.Exoticism in literature.Travel writingHistory.Difference (Psychology) in literature.EuropeansHistory.European literatureHistory and criticism.Literature, MedievalHistory and criticism.Geography, Medieval.809/.93591Campbell Mary B.1954-1005727American Council of Learned Societies.DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK996248084103316The Witness and the Other World2312897UNISA
