Writing Travel assembles a superb collection of essays that demonstrate how travel attempts to reconfigure the world and, in so doing, to become a metaphor for imagination, subjectivity, and representation itself. Examining a broad range of texts and travellers from across the world, the contributors discuss canonical authors such as Homer, Goethe, and Baudelaire, alongside lesser known writers such as Theodor Herzl, Hans Erich Nossack, and William Gibson. This theoretically rich volume draws connections between travel and narrative, and provides powerful insights into the relationship between travel and the spoken act of storytelling, as well as the more ambivalent act of story writing. An engaging collection of essays by first-rate scholars, Writing Travel is an illuminating exploration of the history of travel writing, its influence on other literary genres, and the origins of narrative. 410 0$aGerman and European studies ;$v8. 606 $aTravelers' writings$xHistory and criticism 606 $aTravel writing$xHistory 606 $aTravel writers 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aTravelers' writings$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aTravel writing$xHistory. 615 0$aTravel writers. 676 $a809/.9332 700 $aZilcosky$b John , $0990077 702 $aZilcosky$b John 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456375403321 996 $aWriting travel$92264602 997 $aUNINA
