55-5405 CRW: Writers on the Road

From the American road story to tales of immigrants and emigrants to adventures abroad - expatriation, political exile, and extended travel - dislocation from the familiar has for centuries played upon the imaginative processes of writers. Students will study a wide and diverse range of fiction and creative nonfiction writers who have explored the way in which prolonged or brief exposure to other countries and/or cultures has opened subject matter, story content, and individual voice.
