520    This study is principally about travel and the travel 
       experience, engaged those themes within the context of 
       existing post-colonial and post-modern debates that 
       critique the writings of Western travelers who journeyed 
       in non-Western locales. The travel writers, or travel 
       savants, as they are characterized in the work, rarely 
       traveled alone but typically promoted a travel persona of 
       the idealized solitary traveler derived from deeply 
       engrained traditions in Western travel literature. Such 
       solitary projections were mitigated by a narrative device 
       that envisioned traveling companions in the form.
