Research on medieval and early modern travel literature has made
great progress, which now allows us to take the next step and to
analyze the correlations between the individual and space
throughout time, which contributed essentially to identity
formation in many different settings. The contributors to this
volume engage with a variety of pre-modern texts, images, and other
documents related to travel and the individual's self-orientation
in foreign lands and make an effort to determine the concept of
identity within a spatial framework often determined by the meeting
of various cultures. Moreover, objects, images and words can also
travel and connect people from different worlds through books. The
volume thus brings together new scholarship focused on the
interrelationship of travel, space, time, and individuality, which
also includes, of course, women's movement through the larger
world, whether in concrete terms or through proxy travel via
readings. Travel here is also examined with respect to craftsmen's
activities at various sites, artists' employment for many different
projects all over Europe and elsewhere, and in terms of
metaphysical experiences (catabasis).
