This course will provide an intimate survey of this varied literature. Opening up questions such as whether pedestrian travel was an exciting allurement or a hard necessity, and to what extent travel offered release from social or familial constraints, discussion will address Romantic writers' self-fashioning in their travel narratives, and the roles of gender and class.Assessment: 100.0% CourseworkLevel: 6
