“In this article, I propose that mobility performs a crucial role in the production and sustenance of intimate relationships and focus, in particular, on courtship practices and their modern-day equivalents. I pursue this discussion through close readings of literary and autobiographical texts from the nineteenth century through to the millennium, and by means of a framework that triangulates the work of Tim Ingold, David Seamon and Henri Bergson. My focus here is on how the mobilities we practice during the everyday routines of courtship \u2013 i.e. the paths we make, the routes we take, the roads we travel, the journeys we repeat, the transport we use \u2013 come to characterise the relationship concerned and impact upon its progress. Both Ingold\u2019s work on \u2018lines\u2019 and Seamon\u2019s on \u2018place-ballet\u2019 are conceptually suggestive in this regard and speak to recent work in mobilities\/cultural geography on the significance of\u00a0patterns of movement<\/i>\u00a0in the praxis of relationships.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
