E. B. Du Bois, and from Virginia Woolf to Jean Rhys, this book discusses how fictional travelers negotiate and adapt various tropes of travel (such as quest, expatriation, displacement, and exile) as models for their own journeys. Specifically, Peat considers the ethical dimensions of modernist travel from two distinct vantages. The first focuses on the relationship between the secular and the sacred in modernist travel literature, arguing that the recurrent narrative of secular travel is haunted by a desire for spiritual transcendence. 410 0$aRoutledge studies in twentieth-century literature ;$vv. 15. 606 $aAmerican literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aModernism (Literature) 606 $aPilgrims and pilgrimages in literature 606 $aTravel in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAmerican literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aModernism (Literature) 615 0$aPilgrims and pilgrimages in literature. 615 0$aTravel in literature. 676 $a820.9/32 700 $aPeat$b Alexandra$f1976-,$0957436 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459263703321 996 $aTravel and modernist literature$92168641 997 $aUNINA
