The Arts in Place-Making

We are delighted to announce the publication of our tourism textbook Sustainable Narratives & Technologies in Tourism. We want to thank Ouistreham’s artist-in-residence, Sophie Eugène, along with the Directrice of Education & Culture for the support they gave us during our fieldwork. For my chapter 7 on Knowledge Networks, Sophie devoted valuable time to explaining her residency and her art practices, especially for her painting, L’Estuaire. On a second visit to Ouistreham, I was able to view the painting in the town hall in the old town centre called Le Bourg.

Mark Stothard’s chapter 16 on slow tourism in our new book is also inspired by art practices in Ouistreham Riva-Bella and encourages visitors to stop over in the town and spend time exploring the culture of the place.

Teaching Resources

Most of the chapters have a PowerPoint and slide script for lecturer's to use in their own tecahing. In fact, a complete module can be created from the chapters in the book. You can preview the slide presentations as short videos on YouTube.

PhD in Contemporary Travel Writing

PhD in Contemporary Travel Writing Syddansk Universitet Writing Travel in the Twenty-First Century: Mobility and Authenticity in the Planetary Emergency Travel is older than human civilization itself. Migration, trade, tourism and pilgrimage, all are forms of human movement that have existed for millennia. Yet travel is no longer what it used to be. Slow travel, flight shame, sustainable travel, eco- and anti-tourism, staycation and microadventures are but some of many recent terms testifying to a growing awareness that mobility has become inextricably intertwined with planetary concerns, regardless of whether it is the short distance of a commute to work, or that of long-distance globetrotting. With 2024 likely proving to be the hottest year on record and tourists evacuated by boat from uncontrollable forest fires on Rhodes in 2023, all the while tech billionaires promise us trips to Mars and hotels on the moon (while others perish trying to reach the Titanic), we are also told t...
