Anthem Studies in Travel
Anthem Studies in Travel publishes new and pioneering work in the burgeoning field
of travel studies. Titles in this series engage with questions of travel, travel writing, lit-
erature and history, and encompass some of the most exciting current scholarship in
a variety of disciplines. Proposals for monographs and collections of essays may focus
on research representing a broad range of geographical zones and historical contexts.
All critical approaches are welcome, although a key feature of books published in the
series will be their potential interest to a wide readership, as well as their originality
and potential to break new ground in research.
