Homesickness around the Mediterranean, 1492–1923: Routledge Studies in Cultural History

Editat de José Alberto Rodrigues da Silva Tavim, João Teles e Cunha
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 4 mar 2025
This volume analyzes how people of diverse cultural and religious backgrounds living around the “Middle Sea” perceived, felt, and described homesickness, using a multidisciplinary approach which brings new perspectives to known phenomena and their evolving meanings.
The sixteen studies in this book span the fields of history, literary and cultural studies, and musicology to explore and revisit old and new subjects including diasporas, renegades, expatriates, travelogues, testaments, inquisitorial processes, songbooks, movies, and photos. Together, they provide a comprehensive picture of homesickness across states, cultures, religions, and people, furthering understanding how individuals, communities, and nations created and expressed images, ideas, and emotions on this subject. Though centered around the Mediterranean, this volume also studies the impact of homesickness in a larger geography touched by the Iberian empires.
This important contribution to the history of emotions offers studies on subjects seldom available in the English-speaking world, and will appeal to undergraduates, postgraduates, scholars, and non-specialists alike.
