Travel Writing in the Long Nineteenth Century
The MMU PGR/ECR Long Nineteenth Century Interdisciplinary Research Seminar Series is organised by Postgraduate students at Manchester Met and are aimed at fostering inter-institutional and multi-faculty networking.
Seminars are held on the third/last Thursday of every month, with two or three speakers presenting their research around a similar theme or topic related to the long nineteenth century.
This seminar will focus on travel writing in the long-nineteenth century, with two speakers sharing their papers:
Christian Drury (Durham University)
Travel guides as travel writing: infrastructure and escape in Norway, 1870-1920
