Listening to Early Modern Travel Writing: Sound, Bodies and Purchas His Pilgrimes - Elements in Travel Writing
Murphy, Emilie K. M. (University of York)
This Element demonstrates that the epistemic value of sound and listening (real and imagined) was central to early modern travel writing. It argues that traveller-writers and their editors, in this case Samuel Purchas, intentionally stimulated the ears and auditory imaginations of their listener-readers.
