| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I investigated some English novels, which could not have been successfully written without having recourse to geographical imagination. Previous researches have concentrated on considering one country or one region, which were not persuasive enough to argue the rich geographical meanings of English novels. This study is a comprehensive one with various novels in mind which deal with some regions, some countries and continents around UK, which add attractiveness of English novels.
