Synopsis
Contributing Authors

This book is an invitation to follow the roads travelled by Croatian Romantics and to get a flavour of their multi-sensory experiences.

This book is an invitation to follow the roads travelled by Croatian Romantics and to get a flavour of their multi-sensory experiences. The routes of travel were determined by the identity-related needs of creating a modern nation, language, literature and culture, with a specific person as the subject of experience and cognition. An analysis of the selected travelogues shows the intertwined collective, ideological and individual perspectives, the changing demands to which the travellers responded, and the altering way of perceiving the places visited. Croatian travel accounts, closely linked to cultural and political concepts, show the search for and the clash between the familiar and the foreign in Dalmatia, Bosnia, Croatia, in what is now Slovenia, and in northern Italy.
