 Hi,

Does anybody have any suggestions for readings on travel writing in a colonial/post-colonial context? I have some references for theory that I'm going to check out - Imperial Eyes: Travel Writing & Transculturation by Mary Louise Pratt, Travel Writing & Empire: Postcolonial Theory in Transit Ed by S. H. Clark, Routes: Travel & Translation in the Late Twentieth Century and Writing Culture: The Poetics & Politics of Ethnography by James Clifford. What I'm looking for here are primary resources and texts - colonisers own travel narratives.

Thanks in advance,

Rebecca
