A History of Walking. <\/p>\n
With profiles of some of the most significant walkers in history and fiction,
\n‚Wanderlust‘ offers a provocative and profound examination of the interplay
\nbetween the body, the imagination and the world around the walker. <\/p>\n
What does it mean to be out walking in the world, whether in a landscape or a
\nmetropolis, on a pilgrimage or a protest march? In this first general history
\nof walking, Rebecca Solnit draws together many histories to create a range of
\npossibilities for this most basic act. Arguing that walking as history means
\nwalking for pleasure and for political, aesthetic, and social meaning, Solnit
\nhomes in on the walkers whose everyday and extreme acts have shaped our
\nculture, from the peripatetic philosophers of ancient Greece to the poets of
\nthe Romantic Age, from the perambulations of the Surrealists to the ascents of
\nmountaineers. <\/p>\n
With profiles of some of the most significant walkers in history and fiction –
\nfrom Wordsworth to Gary Snyder, from Rousseau to Argentina’s Mothers of the
\nPlaza de Mayo, from Jane Austen’s Elizabeth Bennet to Andr\u00e9 Breton’s Nadja –
