But for representing a wide field such as Indian travel writing, the choice of samples appears rather restricted, at least in terms of gender. Since the author introduces a crucial concept such as vernacular cosmopolitanism, one would have expected him to cast his net wider and include vernacular travel narratives. This would have lent greater depth to the discussion and broadened its scope. That being said, the book will nonetheless serve to deepen and expand one’s understanding of travel narratives written by Indians.","PeriodicalId":45158,"journal":{"name":"BIOGRAPHY-AN INTERDISCIPLINARY QUARTERLY","volume":"45 1","pages":"113 - 117"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41404231","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
