WANDERERS :LITERATURE, CULTURE AND THE OPEN ROAD

---

This book introduces the idea and experience of wandering, as re-fected in cultural texts from popular songs to philosophical anal-ysis, providing both a fascinating informal history and a necessary vantage point for understanding—in our era—the emergence of new wanderers. Wanderers offers a fast-paced, wide-ranging, and compelling in-troduction to this signifcant and recurrent theme in literary history. David Brown Morris argues that wandering, as a primal and recurrent human experience, is basic to the understanding of certain literary texts. In turn, certain prominent literary and cultural texts (from Par-adise Lost to pop songs, from Wordsworth to the blues, from the Wan-dering Jew to the flm Nomadland) demonstrate how representations of wandering have changed across cultures, times, and genres. Wan-derers provides an initial overview necessary to grasp the importance of wandering both as a perennial human experience and as a changing historical event, including contemporary forms such as homelessness and climate migration that make urgent claims upon us. Wanderers takes you on a thoroughly enjoyable and informative stroll through a signifcant concept that will be of interest to those studying or researching literature, cultural studies, and philosophy.
