LIT & TOUR Defining the Terms in Literary Tourism

Travel Writers Online magazine blog is delighted to announce the publication of WORKING DEFINITIONS IN LITERATURE AND TOURISM edited by Sílvia Quinteiro and Maria José Marques



WORKING DEFINITIONS IN LITERATURE AND TOURISM

  WORKING DEFINITIONS IN LITERATURE AND TOURISM has brought together many authors and academics who work in the area of literary tourism knowledge to provide researchers with a dictionary of terms and definitions to engage with this field of study.  The publication is now free to download. 

"As part of the project, 40 experts were asked to produce a set of over 60 inputs, each defining the concept in their own way. Considering that future readers will have a wide range of backgrounds, the authors were asked to write their entries as a starting point for further research on the topic or topics to which they refer, and so suggestions for further reading are also included. This book is therefore a meeting place for researchers from around the world, who have generously agreed to share with the scientific community contributions from areas in which they are experts, as well as a starting point for new and additional research."

  1. I've only just noticed in the stack of books, slightly to the left of centre, a copy of The Leopard, maroon cover and with a slip-case. I wish I'd seen that before. I'm reading the paperback edition at the moment.

AI Detector

I've been looking at AI Detectors that are now stable and easy to use. The first one to write about is from a company based in Montreal, and so, as you would expect from that bilingual city, it works on English and French texts. It's called Winston AI. The AI detector tells you if written copy is generated by a human or an Artificial Intelligence text generator robot. It uses a graphic sliding scale. The software also detects plagiarism and presents a thorough list of any copied content it has found. As a user of Winston AI you just paste text into the quick scan option. You can upload bigger documents in the following formats: .docx, .pdf, .png and .jpg for the OCR (Optical Character Recognition) system to convert to electronic text from scanned documents or pictures. This also works on handwriting like Google Lens and the other handwritten text readers and convertors do. The Winston AI Detector works in projects, this lets you label or title pieces you are examining for plagi

Imagining Tourists and Tourism Conference Paris

Imagining Tourists and Tourism Conference - Paris 19-21 June 2024 Aims of the Conference The conference aims to explore the links between tourism and fiction, and more precisely to consider tourism and tourists as fictions. It is part of a series of conferences organized since 2011 by researchers from the Universities of Geneva, Panthéon-Sorbonne and Berkeley to explore the links between tourism and the imaginary. The first four meetings had evoked how tourism mobilized imaginaries specific to destination countries, their landscapes, their cultures and their inhabitants. The fifth conference will focus on the imaginary that applies to tourists themselves. Imaginary tourists We will examine how the various actors of tourism, as well as the places and practices of tourism, appear in works of fiction. Literature, cinema, theater, song, advertising, etc., stage tourist configurations, which are sometimes at the very heart of these fictions.  Fictional tourists include those invented by the

Brežice, a place of mystery

Brežice, a place of mystery           Photo: Water tower in Brežice, Bine Leben, 20.1.2024     Travel writing from the University of Maribor, Faculty of Tourism. Masters Programme: English in Tourism – Higher Level 2    Author: Teja Leben     Mentor: Dr. Jasna Potočnik Topler     Brežice, a place of mystery     Already from afar, after the highway exit for Krško from the direction of Ljubljana, I notice the silhouette of Brežice, highlighted by the Water Tower and the bell tower of the Church of St. Lovrenc, which I read about before the trip. Both rise above the houses and grove of the old town. Otherwise, you can also see a few taller high-rise buildings next to them, but very few, so even from a distance it can be concluded that Brežice is a small town. I am on the right track, as I would like to discover something more about Brežice and share it with the world.     Photo: Brežice from highway,  Nina Lovrek, 21.1.2024     The confluence of the Sav
