Thesis Title: Learning to travel: British tourists in France, 1890-1936

David Hopkin

About

My DPhil thesis asks how, when and why rural France became a new Arcadia in the British imagination.

I also want to understand how France transformed itself into a nation that welcomed visitors.

I'm currently working on a couple of articles, including a piece on disaster tourism and a piece on how people read maps.

I teach on 19th and 20th century European History, with a serious interest in the theory and methods of history. If you'd like to know more, please get in touch.
