Walking with narratives

Abstract

In this introduction to the anglophone edition, we outline the context in which the research of the international group “Espace, Déplacement, Mobilité” (EDM), is being developed. We set out the theoretical framework within which this research is conducted. We position our approach at the intersection of three research interests (narratives, space, mobilities) and three major transformations that have occurred in the humanities and social sciences (narrative turn, spatial turn, mobilities turn) over the last 50 years. This multidisciplinary conception aims at a detailed understanding of the relationship between humans and space through the study of mobilities. We seek to contribute to the construction of literary mobilities as a subfield of mobility humanities by putting forward the hypothesis that the narrative configurations of mobilities negotiate and mediate the relationships that humans have with places.
