    Cities and Travelers: From the Set of Contemporary Spanish Travel Stories

The "Cartoviaje" project consists of a comprehensive corpus of Spanish travel narratives from the 19th and 20th centuries and a database where all the information is detailed. The project's goal is to offer multiple contexts about travel in relation to sociological, anthropological, geographical, economic, and architectural aspects, among others. For example, travelers' information about city life provides essential data for understanding them today.
