Unhuman Tour (Kusamakura)
Soseki's Unhuman Tour (Kusamakura) follows a nameless young artist as he embarks on a contemplative journey through the mountains. Seeking inspiration, he arrives at a hot spring resort, where he becomes entranced by Nami, the beautiful daughter of the innkeeper. Nami's presence becomes the central focus of the artist's musings, as he silently observes her beauty and contemplates the nature of art, love, and impermanence. The novel unfolds like a haiku-elegant, minimalist, and meditative-exploring the fleeting nature of beauty, both in nature and human form. Written during the Meiji period, a time of rapid modernization in Japan, Kusamakura reflects a longing for a simpler, more peaceful past, evoking nostalgia for old Japan. The courtship between the artist and Nami is subtle and silent, underscoring the ephemeral nature of life and love. Through lyricism and introspection, Sōseki creates a deeply philosophical narrative about the transience of beauty and the inner life of the artist.
An Unprotected Female at the Pyramids
Trollope's An Unprotected Female at the Pyramids humorously critiques the societal view of women as fragile and in need of constant male protection. The title itself pokes fun at the idea that a woman, particularly one who is unmarried and traveling alone, is somehow incapable of navigating the world without male supervision or assistance. In the story, Sabrina Dawkins, a sharp-witted, independent, and attractive woman in her thirties, joins a group of tourists in Egypt to visit the pyramids. Despite her intelligence and capability, her fellow travelers assume she is incapable of handling certain tasks simply because she is an ""unprotected"" female. They doubt her ability to climb the pyramids, travel to distant locations like Sinai and Jerusalem, and navigate the cultural challenges of Egypt without a male escort. In each instance, Sabrina proves them wrong, displaying a level of competence and confidence that far surpasses her male companions. Trollope cleverly exposes the absurdity of these gendered expectations, using Sabrina's autonomy and resourcefulness as a means of mocking the antiquated notions of women's fragility. In doing so, the story anticipates the more independent, complex heroines found in later literature, making Sabrina Dawkins a forward-thinking character in the context of her time.

Two Trips To Gorilla Land And The Cataracts Of The Congo Vol. II
Two Trips to Gorilla Land and the Cataracts of the Congo, Volume II by Richard F. Burton continues the renowned explorer's journey through Central Africa. This volume details Burton's exploration of the Congo River and the surrounding regions, where he provides vivid accounts of the geography, wildlife, and indigenous cultures he encountered. The narrative begins with Burton's departure from Fernando Po in 1863, aboard a British steamship, during the intense heat of the African summer. He reflects on the challenging conditions faced by Europeans in the region, including the threat of yellow fever. As the journey progresses, Burton describes the landscapes along the Congo, offering insights into the diverse flora and fauna he encountered. He also delves into the lives of the local tribes, documenting their customs, practices, and social structures. Burton's writing blends adventure with ethnographic observation, providing a rich and detailed portrait of the uncharted regions of Africa. The book presents a fascinating glimpse into the natural world and cultures that were little known to Europeans at the time.
Dis-orienting the Maghreb; Morocco in British and American Travel Writing
From the Foreword: Dis-orienting the Maghreb offers a valuable contribution to both scholarship on travel literature and postcolonial studies. Rddad's emphasis on geographical specificity and his focus on the often-neglected travel narratives of Morocco provide a much-needed corrective to the prevailing trends in the field that privilege temporality and continuity. His work not only broadens our understanding of Orientalist discourse but also contributes to the study of travel literature by highlighting the diversity and complexity of Western representations of the Maghreb. His nuanced approach invites readers and scholars alike to reconsider the ways in which we engage with and interpret the rich tradition of travel writing that have shaped our understanding of the world. (Ali Behdad, John Charles Hills Chair in Literature, Professor of English and Comparative Literature, and the Director of the Center for Near Eastern Studies at University of California, Los Angeles) This book rethinks the encounters between Morocco and the West by exploring the ideological and historical foundations of the discursive shifts in Anglo-American travel writing on Morocco. Four major paradigm shifts are identified that characterize travel writing's production of knowledge in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, an era which started placing Morocco in the narrative of Western civilization. The national(ist) turn considers the ways in which Philip Durham Trotter's Our Mission to the Court of Marocco (1880) foregrounds a parochial patriotic rhetoric founded on the notion of the British priority discourse. The secular turn examines Frances Macnab's A Ride in Morocco (1902) to underscore the supremacy of the secular intent of colonialism over the religious and missionary channels in the dissemination of modernism. The transnational turn examines George Edmond Holt's Morocco the Piquant (1914) in terms of the cultural and ideological transformations of discursive forms in the USA and Morocco in the era of transnationalism. Finally, the imperial turn discusses Edith Wharton's In Morocco (1920) to reveal the anxieties of a discourse trapped between the advocacy of American nationalism and French colonialism.
Senegal
This new, thoroughly updated third edition of Bradt's Senegal continues to offer by far the deepest coverage of any guidebook to this increasingly popular part of West Africa - and is the only one to focus exclusively on the country. With nearly 400 pages of detailed description, it remains the definitive source of tourist information about the region's most accessible Francophone nation. Senegal's smorgasbord of landscapes belies its compact size; pleasingly, all can be reached within a day's travel, making the country perfect for anyone looking to sink their teeth into West Africa for the first time - or the hundredth. Northern desert wilds cede to lush, subtropical Casamance (now benefitting from an historic peace deal), fringed by hundreds of miles of pristine beaches. Meanwhile, the fantastically frenetic capital city, Dakar, perches proudly at the African continent's westernmost point, almost entirely surrounded by ocean. Natural assets aside, Senegal offers numerous man-made delectations. The country's fashion is among the most dazzling on the African continent, from wide and shiny grand boubous to multi-coloured patchwork baye fall tunics. Dakar's nightclubs throb well into the morning hours, offering a rare chance to dance yourself silly with superstar musicians on their home turf. Senegal attracts numerous visitors to one of Africa's most prolific and creative arts scenes, so this guidebook provides a thorough, accessible introduction to its music, art, film and literature. Saint-Louis' charm is a glorious throwback to 19th-century colonial glamour, while sleepy ?le de Gor矇e is a haunting testament to colonial horror: visitors peer through the door of no return, where thousands destined for the Americas glimpsed Africa for the final time. This new third edition reflects improvements associated with post-COVID revitalization of tourism. New transport infrastructure makes travel easier than ever. The Petite-C繫te boasts an expanded range of activities, restaurants and lodging options. Once-neglected Niokolo-Koba National Park has come under the wing of conservation organizations: a brand new lodge offers comfortable accommodation and privileged wildlife viewing. Thoroughly updated throughout by a resident travel writer, Bradt's Senegal remains the only guidebook ready to take you to all corners of this enchanting land.
Uganda
Bradt's Uganda has for many years been considered the go-to source of information for travellers interested in this extraordinary country, which boasts Africa's most biodiverse - and arguably most exciting - safari circuit. Written by Philip Briggs, the world's foremost guidebook writer on Africa, this new tenth edition of the most detailed travel guidebook available to Uganda has been thoroughly updated by local resident and experienced travel writer Andrew Roberts. Uganda excels for wildlife-watching, and recent transport improvements now make for relatively easy year-round access to key sites. Visit the lush montane forests of Bwindi, which protect one of the world's largest remaining populations of mountain gorillas, watch habituated chimpanzees in Kibale and tree-climbing lions in Queen Elizabeth National Park, or enjoy outstanding birdwatching throughout - with more than a thousand bird species in a country similar in size to Oregon. As well as treating readers to a full-colour wildlife section with over 100 colour photographs, Bradt's Uganda guides visitors around key wildlife-watching experiences. It provides up-to-date coverage of gorilla-tracking options, describing gorilla groups and their locations - everything anyone who dreams of encountering these remarkable primates needs to know. Uganda is not just about wildlife. Hikers love some of Africa's tallest mountains, notably the snow-capped Rwenzori (the 'Mountains of the Moon'), the massive collapsed caldera that tops Mount Elgon, and the steep forest-swathed volcanic peaks of the Virungas. A highlight for adrenaline junkies is rafting the 'Grade Five' white-water rapids on the Nile shortly after it emerges from the inland sea that is Lake Victoria. In this tenth edition, carefully selected accommodation listings have been updated, providing critical appraisals of optimum options in each price bracket. While tourism has long focused on western Uganda, this edition strengthens attention on the country's remote northeast corner, which is emerging as a popular destination that includes the untrammelled savannah of Kidepo National Park and offers opportunities to interact with traditional Karamojong pastoralists. Boasting detailed maps of the country, updated or created from scratch using GPS, and all the travel advice a visitor might want, Bradt's Uganda remains the essential companion guide to this compelling country.
Botswana Safari Guide
This new, thoroughly updated sixth edition of Bradt's Botswana Safari Guide remains the only full-blown, standalone guide to one of Africa's most popular and rewarding safari destinations. This is the sole guide to focus on Botswana's key safari locations: the Okavango Delta, Chobe National Park and the Northern Kalahari. Moreover, with improved air access from the US, via South Africa, Botswana has never been easier to visit. The country's wilderness is pristine, a virtue underpinned by governmental commitment to sustainable tourism. The Okavango Delta's permanent waters attract year-round wildlife, now including all the 'big five' rhinos have been successfully re-introduced. Outside the Delta, this English-speaking country offers tremendous variety in landscapes, from the arid Kalahari to lush forests. Riverine areas harbour spectacular herds of elephants and buffalo, and mighty predator populations. Dusty savannahs attract hardier game like oryx and springbok. On Makgadikgadi's great salt pans, zebra gather in huge congregations after rain. Birdwatching is brilliant throughout. Then there's Botswana's rich history, from the Tsodilo Hills' ancient rock paintings to Stone Age arrowheads on the Makgadikgadi Pans. Bradt's Botswana Safari Guide offers detailed descriptions of many lodges, from traditional tented camps to those offering five-star luxury and top-class cuisine, plus detail on what animals occur where, enabling you to select the optimum approach. With this book's comprehensive GPS co-ordinates and detailed maps, independent travellers can drive themselves around. But perhaps you prefer bespoke mobile safaris with a private guide? For something different, explore rivers on gentle motorboat cruises, including on multi-day trips, or get closer to the water in a traditional mokoro (dug-out canoe), with a poler escorting you along shallow waterways. Or seek out a specialist walking camp for the excitement of bush walks - when meerkats might even pose atop your head for a great lookout. And why not use this book's advice to book-end trips by visiting Livingstone (Zambia) and the Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe)?

Marginlands
"Marginlands is a tour de force, a magnificent first book about India's marginalized landscapes and inhabitants, written with compassion, compressed elegance of observation, and urgent political force."--Robert MacfarlaneAs a child growing up in Mumbai, Arati Kumar-Rao's parents instilled in her an abiding love for the natural world and a passion for storytelling. Years later, adrift in a corporate job and concerned by the unbridled development of her country, she asked herself, "When will you stop doing what you can do and start doing what you really want to do?"Animated by an instinctive sense that our fate is bound to that of the earth and the more-than-human world, Kumar-Rao sets out on a journey across India, listening along the way to stories the land and its people share with her. In the Thar Desert, often reduced to the value of extractable commodities, she learns about ancient methods of harvesting rainwater from shepherds with deep ancestral memories. In the delta formed by the confluence of the Ganges, Brahmaputra, and Meghna Rivers at the Bay of Bengal, she walks ancient shorelines and mangrove forests with a marine biologist, exploring tidepools and learning of the extent to which this astonishingly diverse ecology is increasingly endangered by commercial trawlers and overfishing. And on India's northernmost plateau, surrounded by the Himalaya and home to snow leopards, ibex, and numerous endangered species of eagles and owls, she finds glaciers disappearing at an alarming rate and meets with inhabitants who play little role in creating climate change but now bear the brunt of it.Richly illustrated with the author's photographs and drawings, Marginlands is a vibrant and compelling account of the changes reshaping India today. Engaging and urgent, infused with wonder and profound empathy, this is a work of love and hope, inspiring readers across the world to preserve and protect the world around us.

Malawi
This new ninth edition of Bradt's Malawi remains the only standalone practical guidebook to this magical southeast African destination produced by a mainstream publisher. Long known as the 'warm heart of Africa', thanks to its traditional welcome, Malawi is a small country with a big lake - accounting for around a third of its territory - and, oddly, is the first nation outside Denmark to have a Carlsberg brewery. The guide takes you from the northern Nyika Plateau with its zebra herds to the long lake shore and the easy charm of baobab-studded Likoma Island. Heading south, you come to the capital Lilongwe and nearby Cape Maclear, a low-key resort town with excellent diving and snorkelling. From here you can travel to Liwonde National Park, famed for its abundant elephant and hippo, and the historic town of Zomba, whose high plateau is criss-crossed by hiking trails. Heading south again brings you to Mount Mulanje, the country's highest peak at 3,002 m. Malawi offers many outstanding adventure opportunities: kayaking on the vast lake amongst dug-out canoes; walking up the Rift Valley escarpment to Livingstonia; and watching the 'big five' in wonderful natural surroundings. With the reintroduction of sought-after mammals, including elephants to Nkhotakota Wildlife Reserve and African wild dogs to Liwonde, plus excellent birdwatching, Malawi is a wildlife destination to savour. Also up for discovery are a resurgent music scene (including the Tumaini Festival), intriguing monuments, ancient rock art at Chongoni and compelling village culture.
