Description
The eighteenth century traveler-writers were mostly engaged with
the new knowledge-building project of natural history, and travel narratives
are filled with gentleman effort for “naturalizing”. The idea of progress,
especially in eighteenth century England, was to captivate influential
sections of British society. Technology, unlike today’s understanding, in
this era meant detailed or systematic examination rather than tools or
invention.
