{"product_id":"9781551118086","title":"Letters Written during a Short Residence in Sweden, Norway, and Denmark","description":"\u003cp\u003e “The art of travelling is only a branch of the art of thinking,” Mary Wollstonecraft wrote in one of her many reviews of works of travel writing. \u003cem\u003eA Short Residence\u003c\/em\u003e is her own travel memoir. In a series of letters addressed to an unnamed lover, the work narrates Wollstonecraft’s journey through Scandinavia in 1795, on much of which she was accompanied by her infant daughter. Passionate and personal, \u003cem\u003eA Short Residence\u003c\/em\u003e is at once a moving epistolary travel narrative, a politically-motivated ethnographic tract, a work of scenic tourism, and a sentimental journey. It is both as much a work of political thought as Wollstonecraft’s better known treatises, and a brilliant, innovative, and influential work in the genre. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Broadview edition provides a helpful introduction and extensive appendices that contextualize this remarkable text in relation to key political and aesthetic debates. It also includes a significant selection from Wollstonecraft’s travel reviews. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Broadview Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47058189910256,"sku":"9781551118086","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781551118086_p0.jpg?v=1763751830","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781551118086","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
