Abstract:

Travel Writing 
The Dynamics of Knowledge Production 

Raeesa Usmani (ed.)
Parul University

Travel Writing, narratives on travels, has multitudinous possibilities, still,
unexplored. Travel writing facilitates alternatives and representations to
re-discover, re-live and re-experience places, people and memories from
different approaches. Every dimension presented by a travel writer through
wide-ranging gazes, whether academic and/or critical, personal and/or
creative, brings experiences of ‘others’ to life. Writing about travelling
helps widening the exclusive discourse on travel narratives, either as prose
or verse, which, in turn, brings out expansive interpretations that can enable
the international readership to take a peek into the world of different
viewers /onlookers /travellers, while following their individual Gaze. 
Therefore, the edited book makes a significant contribution to understand how
these varied perspectives might intersect with one another. How does travel
narrative enables the unsettling of space and identities by asking questions
of unsettling ideas of belonging?
