Book excerpt: William Gilpin began traveling in search of picturesque scenes in the 1770s. His five books of journeys not only record what he saw, but evaluate every scene with critical rigor. With these books, Gilpin can be thought of as the father of the picturesque. Observations on the River Wye was the first of Gilpin's books, representing a founding text of the romantic movement. It is illustrated with 17 aquatints that demonstrate the essentials of particular landscapes--essentially, they are lessons in how to look. To read Gilpin and to look at his prints is to enter an entirely 18th-century world, whose influence on the way we look and think today is uncanny. Richard Humphreys, a curator at the Tate Gallery, assesses Gilpin's impact as well as his continuing legacy.

Book excerpt: Clergyman, schoolmaster and writer on aesthetics, William Gilpin (1724-1804) is best known for his works on the picturesque. In his Essay on Prints, published in 1768 and reissued in this series, he defined picturesque as 'a term expressive of that peculiar kind of beauty, which is agreeable in a picture'. First published in 1782, the present work was the first in a series which recorded his reflections on the picturesque across British landscapes. It traces the journey he made, equipped with notebook and sketching materials, along the River Wye and into South Wales, visiting such notable sites as Tintern Abbey. As well as describing his route and its highlights, Gilpin includes several reproductions of his pen-and-wash drawings. Further developing and exploring the concept of the picturesque, his later volumes of Observations on various parts of Britain are also reissued in the Cambridge Library Collection.

Download or read book Tourists and Travellers written by Betty Hagglund and published by Channel View Publications. This book was released on 2010-02-17 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the late 18th and early 19th centuries, travel and tourism in Scotland changed radically, from a time when there were very few travellers and no provision for those that there were, through to Scotland’s emergence as a fully fledged tourist destination with the necessary physical and economic infrastructure. As the experience of travelling in Scotland changed, so too did the ways in which travellers wrote about their experiences. Tourists and Travellers explores the changing nature of travel and of travel writing in and about Scotland, focusing on the writings of five women - Sarah Murray, Anne Grant, Dorothy Wordsworth, Sarah Hazlitt and the anonymous female author of A Journey to the Highlands of Scotland. It further examines the specific ways in which those women represented themselves and their travels and looks at the relationship of gender to travel writing, relating that to issues of production and reception as well as to questions of discourse.
