This book explores how travel writing contributed to cultural and intellectual exchange in and between the Dutch- and German-speaking regions from the 1790s to the 20th-century.

They address cultural, aesthetic, political, and gendered aspects of travel writing, drawing on areas of research including comparative literature, aesthetics, the history of science, literary geography, and the history of publishing.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
