Issue 4 (Spring 2005): Journeys of Discovery
'Journeys of Discovery', the fourth edition of eSharp, is a diverse and exciting publication. Submissions reflect a broad range of journeys: physical, mental and theoretical, and have been received from universities across Britain, from Austria and Hawaii. Subjects include mapping the desert, literary journeys through France and Africa and an archeological perspective on the journeys of medieval pilgrims. From a paper linking postcolonialism, semiotics and tourism to papers that consider modernity in North American fiction, national identity politics in South American film and psychogeographic cartography, many of which were presented at the Culture of Travel conference held at Glasgow University in October 2004, these papers represent the diversity of current postgraduate research.
