Tropics of Travel 4. Homes
Proceedings of the International Conference Organized at the University of Liege (January 13-15, 2011)
edited by F. Bauden
This volume gathers together the proceedings of the conference which took place at the University of Liege from 13 to 15 January 2011. The conference was part of the project Tropics of Travel: Travel in Arabic Writings that took the form of four international symposia held in Venice (2007), Paris (2008), and London (2009). The Liege conference took the other destination of travel, home, as its subject and looked at ways in which travel may revise notions of self, community, and home, and inscribe significance of ontological and epistemological dimensions into the journey of homecoming. This volume includes nine articles that were selected from seventeen papers read at the conference.
