Descripción Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Transatlantic Travels in Nineteenth-Century Latin America: European Women Pilgrims retraces the steps of five intrepid lady travelers who ventured into the geography of the New WorldMexico, the Southern Cone, Brazil, and the Caribbeanat a crucial historical juncture, the period of political anarchy following the break from Spain and the rise of modernity at the turn of the twentieth century. Traveling as historians, social critics, ethnographers, and artists, Frances Erskine Inglis (180682), Maria Graham (17851842), Flora Tristan (180344), Fredrika Bremer (180165), and Adela Breton (18491923) reshaped the map of nineteenth-century Latin America. Organized by themes rather than by individual authors, this book examines European womens travels as a spectrum of narrative discourses, ranging from natural history, history, and ethnography. Womens social condition becomes a focal point of their travels. By combining diverse genres and perspectives, womens travel writing ushers a new vision of post-independence societies. The trope of pilgrimage conditions the female travel experience, which suggests both the meta-end of the journey as well as the broader cultural frame shaping their individual itineraries. This book studies the travel accounts of five lady travelers to Mexico, the Southern Cone, Brazil, and the Caribbean. As eye-witness accounts, their books record the rise of independent republics in Spanish America. Womens travels provide a fresh look at indigenous and African populations in the New World and analyze womens social condition.
