The Routledge Companion to Travel Writing
商品資訊
商品簡介
The Routledge Companion to Travel Writing is both the ideal springboard for beginners new to the genre and an important resource for established researchers. Covering a broad range of historical, theoretical and cultural contexts for the study of travel writing, and combining critical surveys with close readings of individual travelogues, the volume provides a prospectus to the genre that reflects the very latest thinking in the field.
The Companion’s four sections look in turn at:
- Key Debates & Critical Approaches – summarizing crucial debates in the field, and exploring a range of critical methodologies relevant to the study of travel writing
- Historical Overviews – offering a chronological guide to the travel writing of different periods and cultures
- Styles, Modes, Themes – providing more detailed analysis of a range of sub-genres and topics within travel writing
- Imagined Geographies – focusing on travel writing’s depiction, and imaginative mediation, of different regions and topographies around the world.
Covering all the relevant topics and debates, from postcolonial studies and issues of gender and sexuality to visual culture, the travelling body and questions of reception and readership, this is an essential overview of the current state of travel writing studies, which will encourage the field to move in new and exciting directions.
