Voyages and Travels: (De)colonial understandings

This presentation will focus on "travel" as a category at work in global history and ask how understandings of the term as reflected primarily in Anglophone scholarship on travel and travel writing have been shaped by the European colonial tradition of exploration, and how we can move beyond that.
