Description
Focusing on Ugo Foscolo, the Romantic era's and the Italian Risorgimento's best known exile, Robert A. Rushing, in "Traveling by Metonymy: Foscolo's 'A Zacinto,'" re-examines Foscolo's famous sonnet of exile in the light of Van Den Abbeele's 1992 Travel As Metaphor. The essay examines several of the ways that Van Den Abeele's model of travel (where the stable space of the home is used to orient and understand the experience of travel) is complicated by 19thcentury Italy. In fact, for Foscolo to think about home, he must pass through Italian, Greek, Austrian, and Venetian detours. Finally, the article looks not only at the ways in which these detours inform and shape the sonnet, but also at the epistemological consequences of "uprooted" travel. Introduction
