Textul de pe ultima copertă

""Questions of Travel" is a multilayered inquiry into the ideological function of metaphors in discourses of displacement. Kaplan richly historicizes these metaphors in order to explicate the situated meanings that inhere in the myriad kinds of displacement that characterizes contemporary writing and lives. Her meditations on the rhetorics of displacement--including nomadism, exile, migrancy, and other practices of movement across space--take the reader on an exciting excursion into the fraught politics of travel discourse."--Donna Haraway, University of California, Santa Cruz
