The essays in Cather Studies, Volume 8 explore the many locales and cultures informing Willa CatherOCOs fiction. A lifelong Francophile, Cather first visited France in 1902 and returned repeatedly throughout her life. Her visits to France influenced not only her writing but also her interpretation of other worlds: for example, while visiting the American Southwest in 1912, a region that informed her subsequent works, she first viewed that landscape through the prism of her memories of Provence. CatherOCOs intellectual intercourse between the Old and the New World was a two-way street, moving both people and cultural mores between the two. But her worlds extended far beyond France, or even geographical locations. This new volume pairs Cather innovatively with additional influencesOCotheological, aesthetic, even gastronomicalOCoand examines her as tourist and traveler cautiously yet assiduously exploring a diverse range of places, ethnicities, and professions.
