Twenty-First-Century Perspectives on British Travel Writing evidences the evolution of travel writing studies over the last two decades and points to innovative ways to study this heterogeneous genre. This volume seeks to build bridges between the study of travel writing and disciplines of sciences and human sciences so that the analyses of travel texts, images, and objects lead to interdisciplinary enrichment. This volume revisits the complicated relationship between fact and fiction, science and literature, and the world and the word through transdisciplinary approaches. Through case studies of British travel writing from the eighteenth to the twenty-first centuries, the contributors provide illustrations of the fruitful intersection of travel writing studies with other methodologies, such as literary studies, gender studies, postcolonial studies, visual studies, areal studies, engineering studies, food studies, animal studies, ecocriticism, posthumanism, and geocriticism.

Travel writing appears to be the most oxymoronic of genres: the practice of writing and reading typically requires stasis, and travel writing emerges from movement. From the concurrent physical and emotional journeys of Ella Maillart and Annemarie Schwarzenbach to the instantaneous digital discourses of contemporary urban travellers, and from the challenges of writing in the extreme conditions of the Antarctic to those of updating guidebooks via Google Streetview, this book examines the tensions between actual journeys and their resultant texts. Writing on the Move asks questions about the meaning of ‘movement’ – and what counts as ‘travel writing’ – in an age of virtual journeying and enforced immobility.
