People’s travel collections serve as a memory aid to help them write travelogues, novels, or scientific reports when they return home. They may also have merely been a way to document a voyage or journey for future generations. Under the surface of any of these end uses is simply the need to collect, the need to hold on to memory—in the form of material culture, ephemera, photographic documentation or assiduous note taking. Travel archives are the materials (either in manuscript form or printed ephemera) that document the purposeful travel of an individual or group. Like family papers, they may be perceived as having limited value beyond their fellow travelers or family members. Irrespective of the motivation of the traveler, these collections often end up in repositories. How an archivist deals with this material is crucial to its future use.

This article offers preliminary thoughts on travel writing from a gerontological perspective. Gender, race, and sexuality have provided important analytical frames for travel writing studies, but age has yet to function as a topic or point of reference. Through a consideration of five travel books by respected modern authors—Jan Morris, Dervla Murphy, V. S. Naipaul, Paul Theroux, and Colin Thubron—the article asks what motivates travel writers to stay “on the road” into their seventies and beyond, and what the distinctive features of travel narratives written at this life stage might be. The article aims to demonstrate the intrinsic fascination of travel books in which a strong abiding curiosity about the world coexists with an acute—and often melancholy—awareness of the passing of time and personal mortality.
本文从老年学的角度对旅游写作进行了初步思考。性别、种族和性取向为旅行写作研究提供了重要的分析框架，但年龄尚未成为主题或参考点。通过对现代著名作家jan Morris、Dervla Murphy、V. S. Naipaul、Paul Theroux和Colin thubron所著的五本旅行书的分析，本文探讨了是什么促使旅行作家在70多岁甚至更老的时候仍然“在路上”，以及在这个人生阶段所写的旅行故事有哪些独特的特点。这篇文章旨在展示旅行书籍的内在魅力，在这种魅力中，对世界的强烈持久的好奇心与对时间流逝和个人死亡的强烈(通常是忧郁)意识共存。

Critics have argued that a shift toward the “inward” occurred later in eighteenth-century travel writing in part because of earlier questions of credibility. However, John Campbell’s fictional The Travels and Adventures of Edward Brown (1739) focuses upon the “inward” by drawing upon a technique already used in novels—that is, depicting the narrator as a consciousness. Consciousness, or personal identity, derives from John Locke and appears in Campbell’s travel account to demonstrate how circumstances define the narrator’s travel experiences. These circumstances at once establish the credibility of the narrator’s descriptions and also promote Campbell’s Tory commercialism. For the first, the narrator’s consciousness offers a credible account by describing how people live in time and place; for the second, the narrator demonstrates how personal identity and political ideology were attached from the outset, promoting commerce and colonialism through the narrator’s depiction of a nation’s circumstances that produce unique customs and commodities.

This article contrasts two accounts by women written between 1936 and 1939 describing their experiences of Spain during the Spanish Civil War. The aim is to question how far travel writers have a political and ethical relation to the place they visit and to what extent they deal with this in their texts. The global politics of travel writing and the distinction between colonial and cosmopolitan travel writers affect the way a foreign culture is articulated for the home market through discursive and linguistic strategies. The texts are Kate O’Brien’s Farewell Spain (1937) and Gamel Woolsey’s Death’s Other Kingdom: A Spanish Village in 1936 (1939). The conclusions suggest women adopt a range of positions toward the Spanish conflict, depending on their personal commitment and their contact with local people, but their concern to articulate the experience of others in time of crisis has a strong ethical component.

spent. In 1909, Miller graduated from high school and entered City College of New York where he stayed for only two months. While in Greece Miller wrote what many critics believe to be his finest work of "literature," The Colossus of Maroussi. This is basically a travel book with a bit more. While Miller was traveling the United States he happened upon Big Sur where he settled and lived from 1944 to 1963. When Miller moved to Big Sur he helped establish the area as an artists colony with himself being the "leading prophet," aside from Robinson Jeffers, who had been in the area since 1914. Through an examination of Henry Miller’s account of his journey to Greece in 1939, as expressed in his travel book The Colossus of Maroussi, this article examines the image of this country his writing presents. Miller’s description of people, places, and environment is infused with a mystical, spiritual element, as if something magical emanates from the cultural environment of this country and tints the landscape and its inhabitants, adding an atemporal dreamlike quality. The group of literati Miller befriended during his five-month stay in Greece viewed Greek art, culture, and history in an archetypal way, which blends well with Miller’s approach. This analysis of the enchanted world Miller claims to have met and experienced during his journey could thus possibly acquire further significance through tentatively relating it to the way contemporary Greeks may experience aspects of their culture and their Greekness.

花了。1909年，米勒从高中毕业，进入纽约城市学院，在那里他只呆了两个月。在希腊期间，米勒写出了许多评论家认为是他最好的“文学”作品——《马卢西的巨像》。这基本上是一本旅游书。当米勒在美国旅行时，他偶然发现了大苏尔，他在那里定居并生活了1944年至1963年。当米勒搬到大苏尔时，他帮助建立了一个艺术家殖民地，他自己是“领先的先知”，除了罗宾逊杰弗斯，他自1914年以来一直在该地区。本文通过考察亨利·米勒(Henry Miller)在他的游记《马卢西巨像》(The Colossus of Maroussi)中对1939年希腊之旅的描述，来考察他的作品所呈现的这个国家的形象。米勒对人物、地点和环境的描写充满了神秘的精神元素，仿佛某种神奇的东西从这个国家的文化环境中散发出来，为风景和居民着色，增添了一种虚幻的梦幻般的品质。米勒在希腊逗留的五个月期间结识的一群文人以一种典型的方式看待希腊的艺术、文化和历史，这与米勒的方法很好地融合在一起。米勒声称他在旅途中遇到并经历了这个迷人的世界，因此，通过将其与当代希腊人可能体验其文化和希腊性的方式初步联系起来，这种对世界的分析可能会获得进一步的意义。亨利·米勒在希腊旅行
