Book Synopsis Indian Travel Writing in the Age of Empire by : Pramod K. Nayar
Download or read book Indian Travel Writing in the Age of Empire written by Pramod K. Nayar and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-05-31 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indian Travel Writing in the Age of Empire studies a variety of travel narratives by Indian kings, evangelists, statesmen, scholars, merchants, leisure travellers and reformers. It identifies the key modes through which the Indian traveller engaged with Europe and the world-from aesthetic evaluations to cosmopolitan nationalist perceptions, from exoticism to a keen sense of connected and global histories. These modes are constitutive of the identity of the traveller. The book demonstrates how the Indian traveller defied the prescriptive category of the 'imperial subject' and fashions himself through this multilayered engagement with England, Europe and the world in different identities.

Book Synopsis Food, Wine and China by : Christof Pforr
Download or read book Food, Wine and China written by Christof Pforr and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-15 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growth of the Chinese economy and the emergence of the Chinese middle class have fuelled the rapid expansion of China’s outbound tourism market, with many destinations around the world trying to capitalise on the opportunities created by the growing number of Chinese visitors. This book specifically focuses on the demand for food and wine tourism experiences by Chinese tourists, which in recent years has become an important constituent of destination competitiveness. Looking at the different ways in which individual destinations have responded to this increasing demand, this book provides a better understanding of the preferences, motivations and perceptions that underlie food and wine consumption by Chinese tourists. It also illustrates how food and wine tourism experiences have been used in a range of international destinations to specifically attract visitors from China. Including a range of case examples from the Asia-Pacific region and Europe, this book ultimately investigates the strategic directions adopted to guide destination development and marketing initiatives. Such a perspective provides a novel contribution to the still limited body of knowledge on China outbound tourism and will be of interest to upper level students, researchers and academics in Tourism and Hospitality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tourism as a global industry is essentially a post Second-World War phenomenon. Though a number of research papers and articles have been written on different aspects of tourism, there has been a need for an authentic, comprehensive reference book on tourism. Tourism is an ever-expanding service oriented industry with high growth potential for national as well as for international community. Today, tourism has become a global as well as national level exhibition and description of places, prosperity, higher standards of living and the fast-growing concept of paid holidays. The process of tourism incorporates man, space and time as its principal components. As such, it has far reaching significance and implications of a socio-economic nature alongside the environment ones. The tourism has emerged as a most instrumental phenomenon in the economic and social development of any society. The main objective of the present book of Tourism is to organize and put together the different aspects of this complex matrix of the multiple interrelated dimensions of the tourism.

Book Synopsis Postcolonial Borderlands by : Christine Walsh
Download or read book Postcolonial Borderlands written by Christine Walsh and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2009-03-26 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A traditionally nomadic people, the Irish Travellers have experienced a long history of marginalization and discrimination in modern Ireland. This volume explores colonisation as an unresolved trauma which has contributed to this marginalisation of Travellers both within Ireland and abroad. Travellers’ traditionally oral culture has meant that they have, until recently, been excluded from many educational institutions and frameworks. Focusing on two autobiographical works by Traveller writers, Nan Joyce’s My Life on the Road (2000) (formerly Traveller, 1985) and Seán Maher’s The Road to God Knows Where (1972, 1998), the prominence given to oral expression and narration suggests that memory is a collective process, one whereby an individual’s cultural identity develops on a communal level, a level that is intimately connected to the natural world. By re-engaging with the official versions of Irish history as encompassed in narratives where Travellers are active participants, Joyce and Maher reveal the seminal role of storytelling in the creation of a sense of nationhood for a people hitherto excluded to society’s margins. The writings of these Traveller authors also serve to construct a legitimate sense of belonging for Travellers within the modern Irish nation-state. By re-engaging with such individual narrative voices it is possible to illuminate what is lost, but also, what is worth safeguarding for the future.
