Abstract:
The “spatial turn” in the humanities has pointed out how space is produced and how it is affected by power relations, while critical geography has identified the impact of these relations on cartographic representation of space. The presence of maps in travel narratives thus carries certain ideologies and influences the narratives. In Un livre blanc: récit avec cartes [ A Blank Book: Narrative with Maps ] (2007), contemporary French author Philippe Vasset attempts to describe the fifty blank spaces that he has noticed on the topographic map of Paris and its suburbs and visited over a one-year

Abstract: This article examines the comedic techniques used by the 19th-century French novelist, travel writer and journal editor Olympe Audouard, not only to expose the inequalities that existed for women in French society, but also to demonstrate that both women and men were capable of similar foibles and were thus both potential authors of as well as targets for humoristic writing. In order to examine her specific contributions to 19th-century French women’s humor writing, Rogers studies the ways in which Olympe Audouard’s use of comedy evolved in her publications from the 1860s to the 1880

Abstract:
This paper sets out to explore the ways in which certain climates (desert or jungle) perceived by western travellers to be ‘exotic’ affect their perceptions of time and weather (in French the word ‘temps’ covers the meaning of both English words). A particular effect repeatedly noted by nineteenth and twentieth-century French travel writers is that of simultaneity, either of weather patterns in certain mountain (vertical) or desert (horizontal) environments, and/or of a telescoping or dilation of linear temporal sequence. The disorientation experienced as a result of this, combined with a lack

Abstract:
Backpackers are an unusual category of travellers. Their unique mobility patterns, spatial practices, and the areas they travel through expose them to health situations that remain largely unexplored to date. This article conducts a narrative literature review (across six different databases in English and French) in this domain and highlights key contributions. The results show that backpackers frequently experience health problems during their trips. They are described as being more at risk than other tourists and more inclined to adopt harmful behaviours.

Starting from his confrontational allegiance and parochial thesis, namely in his Essays and Lectures of William Robertson Smith(1912), William Robertson Smith discredits Arab travellers for their zealous keenness to discover Western cultural intricacies.

William Robertson Smith went as far as to assume that “The Arabian traveller is quite different from ourselves.

Abstract:
Orthography and pronunciation in the French language are two categories in complete disparity. This discrepancy is reflected in the fact that when pronouncing French, far fewer phonemes are produced than are represented by graphemes in the written form. The goal of this paper is to present the concept of silent morphology, or inaudible morphemes in French, using examples of agreement in gender and number.

This paper offers an understanding of how Morocco, as a former French colony, is racially represented in Tom Gamble’s travel account Amazir: A Novel of Morocco (2010). It shows how the author into question, through racializing Morocco, has taken part in the shaping of colonialist discourse and the construction of ‘Otherness’ as a whole. The selected corpus deserves to be studied because it offers some theoretical perspectives that can be utilized as a guide to scrutinize other similar postcolonial travel narratives.

Recent scholarship has posited the experience of migration as a source of creative, experimental possibilities that allow writers to contest fixed forms of identity; it has also questioned monolingual, monocultural understandings of national literatures that yoke one language to one nation.

AbstractThis chapter shifts the attention toward another point of entanglement, namely the construction of the travelers’ self as a changing narrative category within the travel narratives. Drawing on recent research around the complex development of the notion of the self in the seventeenth century, the argument is that the self is unstable and multiple; it mediates between the space of reception (France) and the space described (the Islands). The self thus becomes a site where the effect of otherness can be traced: it becomes a narrative locus of unsettlement where the impact of early island

Using Glissant’s notion of archipelagic thinking alongside Henri Lefebvre’s and Michel de Certeau’s theories of the construction of space, it argues that whereas the travelers sought to territorialize the islands, the archipelago drew them into more erratic movements, which impacted on the ways in which they presented the Caribbean.

In so doing, the book brings attention to ways in which enslaved and Indigenous peoples actively contributed to shaping early colonial society and, indeed, the representations of it.
