ENGH 231 - Travel Writing

4 credits
We are always traveling somewhere and those journeys provide excellent material for travel writing, but writing about travel deepens the experience of the journey, requiring a little research and careful reflection and allowing us to make connections that we could not make whilst still in motion. Some travel writing strives to make the unfamiliar and strange accessible to readers, but it may also render the seemingly familiar strange and new, allowing writer and readers to see things differently.  Students will read a variety of forms of travel writing (from nineteenth-century travel essays to contemporary blogs and travel guides), and they will write about their own travels in a variety of different forms, which may include a class travel blog.
