Influenced by the work of cultural and human geographers, literary scholars have started to attend to the ways in which early modern people constructed their senses of the world out of interactions among places, spaces, and embodied practices. Early Modern Literary Geographies features innovative and agenda-setting research monographs that partake of this spatial turn. The term literary geographies is to be understood capaciously: the series includes new work on any form of early modern writing that engages with the topics of space, place, landscape and environment. Although English literature is at its center, Early Modern Literary Geographies features scholarship that abuts a range of disciplines, including geography, history, performance studies, art history, musicology, archaeology, and cognitive science. Subjects of inquiry include cartography or chorography; historical phenomenology and sensory geographies; body and environment; mobility studies; histories of travel or perambulation; regional and provincial literatures; urban studies; performance environments; sites of memory and cognition; ecocriticism; and oceanic or new blue studies.
