- Title
‘The living fabric of the world’: Willa Cather's travel journalism.
- Authors
Beyer, Charlotte
- Abstract
The article explores selected pieces of the travel journalism that Willa Cather wrote for the Nebraska State Journal during a trip to Europe in 1902. The focus in the article is on Cather's representations of her encounter with England, with the English people, landscapes and cityscapes. The article considers aspects of Cather's journalistic writing and language, and explores issues related to gender and travel, particularly the encounter between America and the ‘Old World’. An earlier version of this article was presented as a conference paper, at the South West American Studies Forum, University of Exeter, 19 May 2007.
