LIT078 CM - Travel and The Literary ImaginationThe Travel Narrative is essentially an account of a conquest, sometimes in the service of the Divine, sometimes in the service of Empire, sometimes in the service of private enterprise, sometimes in the service of personal satisfaction and private revelations. The readings start with the book of Exodus and go on to the voyage of Ibn Battuta, the voyage of Christopher Columbus, the travels of William Bartram, The Journals of Lewis and Clark, the conquest of the Himalayan region by Europeans, and the journal of the poet Louise Bogan, among others.
