Description:

Significant texts from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries examined in the light of close reading and analysis, with a focus on the significant role played by mobility in the modern world: the wanderer, the emigre, the exile, the hysteric, the itinerant actress, in addition to more socially acceptable travelers and tourists. We'll discuss the evolution, fragmentation, and reinvention of literary forms to correspond to a rapidly modernizing world.
