>CALL FOR PAPERS 
>This is the first announcement and call for papers for the 3rd CTCC 
>Tourism Research Conference. Tourism and Performance: Scripts, Stages 
>and Stories is part of our ongoing conference series focusing on tourism 
>and tourism related practices, with the aim to test and, where useful, 
>to overcome traditional conceptual and disciplinary boundaries. Previous 
>events of this series include Tourism and Photography: Still Visions - 
>Changing Lives in Sheffield, in 2003, and Tourism and Literature: 
>Travel, Imagination and Myth in Harrogate, in 2004. 
> 
>Performance has been theorised as a way by which human beings act in 
>society and organise their being in the world. In the context of 
>tourism, there is much debate regarding the idea of tourists as 
>performers, 'acting out' spaces, and enacting 'scripts', through which 
>they organise and add meaning to their experiences and journeys. Tourism 
>in this sense can be seen to be 'staged'. But such perspectives raise a 
>number of questions regarding the reflexivity, the hermeneutics, the 
>sensual and aesthetic modalities, the social interactions and the 
>political economy of tourist performance: How is individual tourist 
>performance linked to socially prescribed or learnt models regarding 
>tourism behaviour and spaces? How are spaces and material culture 
>'enacted' by and for tourists?  What are the production and consumption 
>modalities of in situ and in visu stages for tourism performance? How is 
>tourism performance linked to modes of touristic social interaction 
>during the journey? What roles do stories play in generating 
>performativity and in liberating tourists from the acts of travel and 
>tourism? 
> 
>The aim of this conference is to explore such questions by drawing on 
>the methodological and conceptual knowledge of different disciplinary 
>perspectives including those of: anthropology, sociology, history, 
>folkloric studies, literature and critical theory, linguistics, 
>human/cultural geography, psychology, theatre studies and other relevant 
>approaches.  Key themes of interest to the conference include: 
> 
>- Eden, Sodom & Gomorrah, the Golden Fleece: narrative archetypes 
>underlying tourism? 
>- Hermeneutics and reflexivity: Tourism scripts, stages and stories as 
>parables of the social world? 
>- Losing the plot: Tourism lost in translation 
>- Odour, sound, vision, taste - making sense of the senses: cognitive 
>categories and processes in tourism 
>- Distance and familiarity: Tourist performance and social interaction 
>- Global forms and exchange: Building facades, eroticising space, making 
>places visible for tourism 
>- Who is cooking who? Geographies and economies of touristic 
>performance, consumption and exchange 
>- Political and symbolic manipulation of tourism scripts, stages and 
>stories 
>- Objects as props - objects as texts 
> 
>Please send a 300 word long abstract of your suggested communication 
>with full address details as an electronic file to Dr. David Picard 
>(send to d.picard at shu.ac.uk ) as soon as possible but by 15th April 2005 
>at the latest.
