| Sumario: | The papers collected in this volume were presented at a conference on "The Journey of Life" which took place at Paderborn University in October 2013. They focus on a perennially recurring archetype of the human imagination which, for obvious reasons, is especially influential in the U.S. The articles offer exemplary insights into the manifestations and functions of the 'journey of life' concept in both American life and literature. Some contributions deal with 'real' journeys ranging from the westward travels of pioneer women physicians in the nineteenth century through Jack London's 'journeys. |
