Accounts of travel to England reached unprecedented levels of
popularity in the German states in the late eighteenth and early
nineteenth centuries. Competition therefore increased for travel
writers to produce travelogues which offered the most authentic,
original and vibrant picture of England. The wider range of
narrative strategies which travellers consequently deployed
increasingly drew on the emotional responses of their audience
whether to serve a political purpose, show concern for the darker
side to the Industrial Revolution or simply demonstrate the
humanitarian interests of the travellers themselves. In this
broad-ranging study, Alison E. Martin draws on a variety of
travellers, men and women, canonical and forgotten, to chart the
fascinating variety of styles and approaches which mark this highly
interdisciplinary genre.
