Linking Urban and Rural Tourism

Strategies in Sustainability

by Susan L Slocum, Carol Kline

Destinations rely on regional strategies to support and enhance the tourism product through regional partnerships and integration. Integrated tourism is defined as tourism that is explicitly linked to the economic, social, cultural, natural and human structures of the region in which it occurs. Integrated tourism has evolved to include numerous meanings and definitions but all of which have a vertical approach. The first of its kind, this book moves away from the vertical approach and provides insight into inclusive regional development strategies that support both the needs of urban and rural areas whilst enhancing the tourist experience, supporting the positive impacts of tourism and mitigating the negative. Regional studies tend to portray either an urban or rural focus without acknowledging that often these spaces constitute joint governance structures, similar historical and cultural roots, and economic dependencies. Sustainable tourism promotes sourcing locally, such as using rural agricultural products in urban tourism experiences. Furthermore, innovative marketing strategies linking tourism heritage, attractions, food and drink trails, and artisans with urban visitors are emerging. Including theoretical and applied research and international case studies, this will be a valuable resource to academics, students and practitioners working in tourism development and regional policy. ; This book provides insight into inclusive regional development strategies that support both the needs of urban and rural areas. Sustainable tourism promotes sourcing locally, such as using rural products in urban experiences, while innovative marketing linking tourism heritage, food and drink trails, and artisans with urban visitors are emerging.

Einfach Kafka

by Franz Kafka, Peter Höfle

Kafka? Würde mich interessieren, hab' sogar schon mal was von ihm gelesen, ist mir aber zu schwer und macht obendrein depressiv … Wir versprechen: Jeder, der bisher so dachte, wird die Lektüre dieses Lese- und Einführungsbuchs als Kafka-Fan beenden! Seine bedeutendsten Erzählungen sind hier enthalten, leichtverständlich eingeleitet und in Kafkas Biographie eingeordnet. Dazu gibt es sorgfältig ausgewählte kürzere Texte, Tagebuchnotizen, Briefe und anderes mehr, das uns auch den Menschen Kafka näherbringt, der gar nicht so verschroben war, wie das Klischee es will, sondern ein humorvoller, warmherziger Mann, der sich der Qualität seiner Literatur bei aller Bescheidenheit durchaus bewußt war.

Popular protest in late-medieval Europe

Italy, France and Flanders

by Samuel Kline Cohn

The documents in this stimulating volume span from 1245 to 1424 but focus on the 'contagion of rebellion' from 1355 to 1382 that followed in the wake of the plague. They comprise a diversity of sources and cover a variety of forms of popular protest in different social, political and economic settings. Their authors range across a wide political and intellectual horizon and include revolutionaries, the artistocracy, merchants and representatives from the church. They tell gripping and often gruesome stories of personal and collective violence, anguish, anger, terror, bravery, and foolishness. Of over 200 documents presented here, most have been translated into English for the first time, providing students and scholars with a new opportunity to compare social movements across Europe over two centuries, allowing a re-evaluation of pre-industrial revolts, the Black Death and its consequences for political culture and action. This book will be essential reading for those seeking to better understand popular attitudes and protest in medieval Europe.

Emerging Voices for Animals in Tourism

by Jes Hooper, Carol Kline

While the study of animal-human interactions within the context of tourism has been explored in a greater number and diversity of ways within the last decade, the discourse remains divided between traditional tourism academia and outside disciplines 'looking in'. Tourism academia has borrowed philosophical, ethical, gender studies, sociological, ecological conservation, and economic lenses to explore animals in tourism, however collaboration with authors external to tourism studies remains few. This edited volume strengthens the bridge between tourism academia and other disciplines by highlighting the fresh perspectives, emerging methodologies and innovative interdisciplinary conventions at the forefront of animals in tourism research, whilst critically working towards more ethical human-animal interactions within the tourism and leisure space. Split into four parts 'emerging motivations', 'emerging cultures', 'emerging narratives', and 'emerging reflections', this book offers readers a rich text grounded in progressive scholarly praxis including: * Research focussed on a wide range of animal taxa, geographic locations, and touristic contexts to help move the conversation toward multi-faceted solutions. * An eclectic selection of methodological approaches from multispecies ethnography to storytelling, literary and media analyses and participant survey that showcases the emerging interdisciplinary practices. * Representation of emerging voices from various fields and disciplines around the world. This unique text will be widely applicable to scholars working towards equitable human-animal interactions within tourism.

Brief an den Vater

by Franz Kafka, Hans-Ulrich Treichel

Franz Kafka hat den Brief an den Vater 1919 geschrieben, diesen jedoch nie seinem Vater gezeigt. Unmittelbarer Auslöser war des Vaters Mißbilligung der standeswidrigen Verlobung Franz Kafkas mit der Schustertochter Julie Wohryzek, zum anderen die verletzende Gleichgültigkeit, mit der er auf die ihm gewidmeten Erzählbände In der Strafkolonie und Ein Landarzt reagiert hatte. Aber auch während des Schreibens kann sich Kafka nicht aus seiner prekären Bindung befreien. Vielmehr erscheint die von Furcht, Liebe und Verachtung gleichermaßen geprägte Beziehung noch bedrohlicher. Er stilisiert den Vater zu jener überdimensionalen Macht, die seine schriftstellerische Betätigung als Gegenreaktion provoziert und die Entfaltung seiner bürgerlichen Existenz verhindert. Kafkas Brief an den Vater gehört zu seinen ausführlichsten und schmerzlichsten autobiographischen Dokumenten. Als literarisches Werk wurde es berühmt als die selbsterzählte Leidensgeschichte eines Franz K.

Kafka

Für eine kleine Literatur

by Gilles Deleuze, Félix Guattari, Burkhart Kroeber

Kafkas unvollendeter Aufsatz über »kleine Literaturen« enthält im Kern eine Theorie über eine Literatur, die sich der Literaturgeschichte entzieht und zur »Angelegenheit des Volkes« geworden ist. Gilles Deleuze und Félix Guattari führen in ihrer Lektüre des Kafkaschen Fragments vor Augen, wie eine dermaßen »deterritorialisierte« Literatur funktioniert, und zeigen deren Strukturen an Kafkas eigenem Werk detailgenau auf. Gerade der nicht literaturwissenschaftliche Zugriff der Autoren eröffnet dabei einen überraschenden und dennoch unmittelbar einleuchtenden Blick auf die Literatur der Moderne überhaupt.

The penny politics of Victorian popular fiction

by Rob Breton

Penny politics offers a new way to read early Victorian popular fiction such as Jack Sheppard, Sweeney Todd, and The Mysteries of London. It locates forms of radical discourse in the popular literature that emerged simultaneously with Brittan's longest and most significant people's movement. It listens for echoes of Chartist fiction in popular fiction. The book rethinks the relationship between the popular and political, understanding that radical politics had popular appeal and that the lines separating a genuine radicalism from commercial success are complicated and never absolute. With archival work into Newgate calendars and Chartist periodicals, as well as media history and culture, it brings together histories of the popular and political so as to rewrite the radical canon.

Environment, labour and capitalism at sea

'Working the ground' in Scotland

by Penny McCall Howard. Series edited by Alexander Smith

This book explores how fishers make the sea productive through their labour, using technologies ranging from wooden boats to digital GPS plotters to create familiar places in a seemingly hostile environment. It shows how their lives are affected by capitalist forces in the markets they sell to, forces that shape even the relations between fishers on the same boat. Fishers frequently have to make impossible choices between safe seamanship and staying afloat economically, and the book describes the human impact of the high rate of deaths in the fishing industry. The book makes a unique contribution to understanding human-environment relations, examining the places fishers create and name at sea, as well as technologies and navigation practices. It combines phenomenology and political economy to offer new approaches for analyses of human-environment relations and technologies. It contributes to the social studies of fisheries through an analysis of how deeply fishing practices and social relations are shaped by political economy. It will be read in universities by social scientists and anthropologists and also by those with an interest in maritime Scotland.
