Description

This book explores how travel writing contributed to cultural and intellectual exchange in and between the Dutch- and German-speaking regions from the 1790s to the 20th-century. By combining a narrative perspective on travel writing with a socio-historically contextualized approach, essays emphasize the importance of textuality in travel literature as well as the self-positioning of such accounts in their individual historical and political environments. They address cultural, aesthetic, political, and gendered aspects of travel writing, drawing on areas of research including comparative literature, aesthetics, the history of science, literary geography, and the history of publishing.
