| Summary: | Travelling Demoiselles’ Emotions : travel in girls’ diaries in the nineteenth centuryThe collection of nineteenth century’s girls’ private diaries studied by Philippe Lejeune (Le moi des demoiselles : enquête sur le journal de jeune fille, 1993) reveals the way travel interrupted the often dull routine of young bourgeois and aristocratic girls. About thirty diaries display the mixed feelings that travel generated for these girls who left home, most often with family members, to discover new places, attend family events, restore health, or acquire education, etc. This selection of texts highlights such topics as the pleasure and anxiety of leaving home, the fear and desire of railway travels’ unexpected encounters, the exhilaration in crossing borde. |
