副題 Romantic Prose IV: Travel Writing
授業概要 An important new development in English society was the rapidly increasing opportunities that people had to travel and experience other cultures and ways of life. This had a profound effect on English intellectual life. Studying the travel writing of the country's men and women will not only make this influence plain, it is also an opportunity to look at internationalisation and the effects of internationalisation in embryonic form.
