Description

Explore the hidden history of labor and movement in Katheryn Walchester's Travelling Servants. Part of the Routledge Research in Travel Writing series, this book examines the role of servants in domestic and Continental travel between 1750 and 1850. Walchester re-positions British and European travel during this era as a site of work rather than just leisure. By analyzing texts by servants that have been overlooked in previous scholarship, the author provides a fresh perspective on historical travelogues. Through a contrapuntal reading of these texts, the book identifies repeated tropes and common patterns in how servants are depicted. This study offers a new way to understand alternative modes of experiencing and writing about the world during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.
