- This output is the result of a sustained seven-year research effort. Based on a doctoral thesis, it underwent substantial expansion during a three-year research fellowship. It is also the result of a detailed analysis of over thirty sets of archival records relating to eighteenth-century Grand Tours. These records - many not previously examined in-depth – have been rigorously contextualised against a wide variety of other early modern sources that go well beyond the typical cannon of eighteenth-century travel literature. The monograph presents a substantial revision of the Tour and the period’s understandings of masculinity and wider cultural trends.
