The website Reading and Walking explores the interdisciplinary relationship between walking as a practice and the act of reading, examining how both activities engage with spatial and experiential dimensions. It features a range of essays, projects, and research that investigate walking as a method for reading environments, landscapes, and texts. This site presents walking not merely as physical movement, but as a cultural and intellectual practice that intersects with literary studies, geography, and art.
The content highlights theoretical frameworks and case studies that link walking with various modes of interpretation, emphasizing how movement through space influences perception and understanding. It includes contributions from scholars and practitioners who address themes such as psychogeography, urban exploration, and the role of walking in narrative structures. The site serves as a resource for those interested in the cultural geographies of walking and its implications for reading both cityscapes and written works.
