Corporeal mobility includes a variety of mobile bodies that have long been othered and marginalised due to issues pertaining to gender, disability, race, and class. Yet there is a relative lack of academic work on it, despite the fact that Anglophone literature has increasingly portrayed the circulation of characters, objects, and information since the 19th century, echoing the many types of mobility that have occurred through processes of colonisation, decolonisation and globalisation. This book, therefore, discusses the ways in which literatures produced in the English-speaking world challenge normative depictions of bodies on the move and reconceptualise them by making corporeality an essential feature of movement across the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is an inspiring collection whose chapters explore the thematic of the travelling body across a fascinating array of literary texts from the nineteenth century to the present. The close readings lend important new insights to our understanding of human mobility and, as a consequence, the volume will appeal to those working in mobilities studies as well as literary scholars.\u003c\/p\u003e -- Lynne Pearce, Centre for Mobilities Research, Lancaster University\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJaine Chemmachery and Bhawana Jain\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart I: Challenging Normative Discourses and Representations of Mobile Bodies\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Lucy's Transgressive Moves in Lady Audley's Secret\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSun Jai Kim\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Through Time and Space: Travelling Bodies in Archaeological Fiction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNolwenn Corriou\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 3: “Doomed with Motion”: Transient Bodies in Light of August\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSolveig Dunkel\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 4: The Shelleys' Tried Bodies in their Travel Literature: Demystification and Mythmaking\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFabien Desset\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 5: Representing the Sick Male Body in David Livingstone’s Final Manuscripts (1865-1873)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGuillaume Didier\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 6: Disability and the Modalities of Displacement in the Early Fiction of J.M.
