The essays do so in a way that appreciates the entanglement of representations and travel at a juncture in theoretical work that recognizes the limits of representation, things that lie outside of representation and the continuing power of representation. The emphasis is on the myriad ways travelers/scholars employ representation in their writing/analyses as they re-think the intersections between travelers, fields of representation, imagination, emotions and corporeal experiences in the past, the present and the future UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9781785336034?locatt=mode:legacy UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781785336034 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781785336034/original ER -
