The essays in this volume approach the theme of travel in narratives of both real and imagined journeys from a variety of different disciplines—history, philosophy, politics, geopolitics, literary studies, regionalism—and examine their religious, psychological, psychoanalytical, philosophical, educational, and historical implications. The essays share an understanding of narratives of journeys across cultural borders as powerful educational tools that can model and contribute to meaningful dialogue with other states, cultures, and civilizations. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCrossing Sacred Frontiers\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eElena V.
