Este estudio aboga por el uso de narrativas de viajes en inglés y sus traducciones interlingüísticas como vehículos para fomentar la sensibilidad intercultural y la conciencia lingüística en el aula de EAP. Tanto las narrativas de viajes como las traducciones interlingüísticas se han utilizado con éxito en entornos académicos, tal como demuestra el creciente interés por su estudio en las últimas décadas. Además, la relación entre los viajes y la lengua puede explorarse, en palabras de Cronin, “in the context of a nomadic theory of translation” donde “the translating agent like the traveller straddles the borderline between the cultures” (Cronin, 2000, p. 2). A la luz de estas consideraciones, este estudio lleva a cabo un análisis comparativo de las narrativas de viajes británicas de Daphne Phelps en A House in Sicily (1999) y su traducción italiana Una casa in Sicilia (2001) para mostrar cómo la narrativa de viajes (también traducida) puede ser una excelente oportunidad para reevaluar qué puede ofrecer este tipo de literatura al contexto de EAP.
