        Gefärbtes Glas

        Historische Gedichte. Griechisch und deutsch

        by Konstantin Kavafis, Michael Schroeder, Michael Schroeder

        Weil im Zentrum des dichterischen Werks von Konstantinos Kavafis (1863–1933), Begründer der modernen griechischen Dichtung, gleichberechtigt neben den Liebesgedichten die historischen Gedichte stehen, tritt neben Um zu bleiben, den erfolgreichen Band mit Liebeslyrik (BS 1020; Radierungen von David Hockney), eine Auswahl der historischen Gedichte – wiederum in Übertragungen von Michael Schroeder.In den historischen Gedichten umkreist Kavafis, der in Konstantinopel und Alexandria lebte, Betrug und Täuschung, Fallen und tapferes Ausharren, Angst und Vermessenheit, stolze Erwartung und vergebliche Mühe – den sicheren, nie aber konkret absehbaren Untergang des Bestehenden. Die Dramaturgie der Personen und Ereignisse ist dicht, auf der Bühne befinden sich die hellenistische Welt und das sterbende Byzanz, Kleinasien, Syrien, Ägypten, der »melting pot« des östlichen Mittelmeers, die Zentren des Durcheinanders: Alexandria, Antiochia, Konstantinopel. Nicht Sternstunden der Geschichte, sondern den vergänglichen Augenblick hält Kavafis fest. Illusionslos, ohne Klage, mit melancholischer Ironie umfahren seine Gedichte die persönliche Wunde: den unwiederbringlichen Verlust einer großen Vergangenheit.

        Istanbul

        Ein Reisebegleiter

        by Barbara Yurtdas

        Istanbul ist eine Literaturstadt. Barbara Yurtdas führt in acht Spaziergängen durch die Gassen und Basare, Paläste und Bäder, zu den Prinzeninseln und ans Ende des Bosporus, in Moscheen, Kneipen und Bordelle. Der Leser erlebt die faszinierende Stadt mit den Augen der Schriftsteller, besucht das plüschig-luxuriöse Pera Palas Hotel, in dem Agatha Christie ihren Mord im Orientexpreß schrieb, oder den Friedhofshügel in Eyüb, wo Pierre Loti sein Liebesnest mit der schönen Aziyadeh ansiedelt. Für europäische und amerikanische Autoren wie Umberto Eco, Stefan Zweig, Gerd Heidenreich, Barbara Frischmuth, Konstantinos Kavafis, James Lovett, Graham Greene und viele andere war Istanbul ein poetischer Ort. Durch ihre Texte ebenso wie durch die Romane, Erzählungen und Gedichte türkischer Schriftsteller bekommt die Topographie der Stadt eine ganz andere Dimension, ein geheimes Leben.

        Monovassiá

        Gedichte. Griechisch und deutsch

        by Jannis Ritsos, Klaus-Peter Wedekind, Klaus-Peter Wedekind

        Monovassiá ist ein Zyklus von 36 Gedichten, geschrieben 1974–1977. Nach dem Ende der Diktatur 1974 bekam Jannis Ritsos, neben Kavafis, Seferis und Elytis der bedeutendste griechische Dichter des 20. Jahrhunderts, die volle Bewegungsfreiheit zurück und stattete seinem Kindheitsort Monovassiá – einem Ort von großer symbolischer Bedeutung in der Geschichte Griechenlands, gelegen auf einer Felseninsel an der Westküste des Peloponnes – mehrere Besuche ab. Mit seinen byzantinischen, venezianischen, osmanischen und nationalgriechischen Denkmälern steht Monovassiá exemplarisch für das nachantike Griechenland – und evoziert Ritsos’ Kindheit, die Geschichte seines Lebens. »Über etwas, das man staunend bewundert, kann man sprechen, wenn man Abstand zu ihm hat. Monovassiá ist, was ich auf dem Leib trage – ja, es ist mein Körper, ich existiere im Innern von Monovassiá.«

        Degrowth in Tourism

        Conceptual, Theoretical and Philosophical Issues

        by Konstantinos Andriotis

        The modern-day world faces a hostile climate, depleted resources and the destruction of habitats. The dream that growth will lead to a materialistic utopia is left unfulfilled by a lack of ecological and economic capacity. The only choice is to find alternatives to increased growth, transform the structures and institutions currently shaping the world, change lifestyles and articulate a more credible vision for the future and lasting prosperity. As a reaction to the problems accrued by capitalism, new development approaches such as the concept of degrowth have evolved. Degrowth in Tourism explores newly-emerging development and philosophical approachesthat provide more equity for host communities and offer a low-carbon future by looking at alternatives to the classic models of development and applying the concept of degrowth in a tourism context. Proposing that we need to shift tourism research from models which prioritize commodified tourism experiences to those that offer alternative decommodified ones, this book: - Provides topical analysis and illustrates the key themes of degrowth; - Discusses the relationship between tourism and degrowth from both a historic perspective and through contemporary patterns of activity; - Includes international examples and case studies to translate theory into practical new approaches. A comprehensive review of the subject, this book will be of great interest to researchers and practitioners within tourism, development, environment and economics, as well as those specifically studying degrowth.

        Issues and Cases of Degrowth in Tourism

        by Konstantinos Andriotis

        The expansion of mass tourism is becoming highly unpopular and 'tourism-phobia', often expressed in the form of anti-tourism marches, is spreading across various destinations. In light of this, there is a paradigm shift from 'tourism growth' to 'tourism degrowth' through a desire for a drastic transformation of the tourism industry. Degrowth is a key strategy to balance tourism growth. It works to ensure that the direction of institutional change and the orientation of technological development are controlled and in harmony with the environment. Degrowth involves people whose use of personal time enhances the richness of the experience through traveling less, more slowly and using low carbon options, taking time to support the environment, the local economy and to explore the local culture. This book addresses the paucity of combined research on tourism and degrowth by presenting emergent knowledge and research on this increasingly important concept. In this book: - The core theme of degrowth from a tourism perspective is outlined. - Content is enriched with contributions from multi-disciplinary academics from around the World. - Theory is put in to practice via international case studies. Due to the multidisciplinary nature of the book, the contents will appeal to researchers and postgraduates studying tourism, environmental studies, geography, planning and development and other related disciplines.

        Tourism Planning and Development in Eastern Europe

        Tourism Planning and Development in Eastern Europe

        by Hania Janta, Konstantinos Andriotis, Dimitrios Stylidis

        Three decades ago, the hypermobility of tourists from the days before the global pandemic was truly unthinkable in Eastern Europe. The borders were closed and the region isolated from the rest of the world. Despite an extraordinary transformation of tourism in the area since, Eastern Europe remains under-explored in tourism studies. This book fills the gap by outlining contemporary strategies for tourism development in post-socialist countries, considering the opportunities and challenges as well as the initiatives and approaches to sustainability. Reviewing tourism development and planning across Albania, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czechia, Estonia, Latvia, Poland and Romania, this book: - Offers a contemporary and insightful outlook of Eastern Europe tourism, with a wide range of case studies from inter-disciplinary and single-disciplinary perspectives; - Uses varied methodological approaches and research methods, including in-depth interviews, focus groups, informal conversations, document analysis, netnography, questionnaires and secondary data, to form an interesting and diverse treatise; - Considers post-COVID tourism and the significant role of tourism stakeholders in its re-development. Illuminating the various economic, socio-cultural and environmental impacts that tourism has created, this book is a valuable reference for researchers and students of tourism and related disciplines, as well as anyone interested in the development of Eastern Europe.

        Tourism Planning and Development in Western Europe

        by Konstantinos Andriotis, Carla Pinto Cardoso, Dimitrios Stylidis

        For many decades, Western European countries have undertaken diverse pathways in tourism development and planning. Most have experienced fast or even unlimited growth, resulting in overtourism and, now, the introduction of policies that respect the limits of communities and the sustainability of their resources. Focusing exclusively on tourism development, planning and policy, this book draws together new voices to discuss issues across Belgium, Denmark, Faroe Islands, Finland, France, Germany, Greenland, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Malta, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden and the UK. It: - Provides both successful and unsuccessful case studies to illuminate real, practical solutions, developed by tourism scholars who are experts in their researched context countries. - Adopts a range of methodological approaches to cover diverse and less-covered areas such as industrial tourism, saltpans, natural and cultural heritage, and micro-destinations. - Considers post-COVID tourism and the significant role of tourism stakeholders in Western Europe's re-development. An invaluable collection for policy-makers, researchers and academics, this book is also an insightful source of engaging contemporary case studies for use in the classroom.

        Tourism and Resilience

        Tourism and Resilience

        by Richard W Butler

        This is the first book to address the concept of resilience and its specific application and relevance to tourism, in particular tourism destinations. Resilience relates to the ability of organisms, communities, ecosystems and populations to withstand the impacts of external forces while retaining their integrity and ability to continue functioning. It is particularly applicable to tourism destinations and attractions which are exposed to the potentially harmful and sometimes severe effects of tourism development and visitation, but which also can experience increased resilience from the economic benefits of tourism. Phenomena such as destination communities, wildlife populations and ecosystems are discussed, as well as the ability of places and communities to use tourism and its infrastructure to recover from disasters such as tsunamis, earthquakes, unrest and disease. This book: · Compares the relevance of resilience to sustainability · Contains contributions from many of the leading international authors · Brings together varying viewpoints of both conceptual and applied issues · Includes example case studies from Whistler, western Canada; Sri Lanka; Purnululu National Park, Australia; and the remote Pitcairn Island in the Pacific Tourism and Resilience is relevant for researchers, students and practitioners in tourism and related fields such as development studies, geography, sociology, anthropology, economics and business/management. ; This book discusses the concept of resilience and its application to tourism. It compares the relevance of resilience to sustainability; the former focusing on the well-being and survival of the places affected and the latter focusing on the agent of impact, tourism itself. ; PART ONE: INTRODUCTION1: INTRODUCTION2: THE DEVELOPMENT OF RESILIENCE THINKING3: COMMUNITY TOURISM RESILIENCE: SOME APPLICATIONS OF THE SCALE, CHANGE AND RESILIENE (SCR) MODELPART 2: SOCIO-ECOLOGICAL RESILIENCE4: SOCIO-ECOLOGICAL BALANCE IN COMMUNITY BASED TOURISM EXPERIENCES: A RESARCH PROPOSAL5: RESILIENCE AND DESTINATION GOVERNANCE6: RESILIENCE AND DESTINATION GOVERNANCE: WHISTLER, B.C.PART 3: RESILIENCE AND RESPONSE TO DISASTERS7: SRI LANKAN TOURISM DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLICATIONS FOR RESILIENCE8: RESILIENCE, TOURISM AND DISASTERS9: RESILIENCE AND PERCEPTIONS OF PROBLEMS IN ALPINE REGIONSPART 4: RESILIENCE IN PROTECTED NATURAL AREAS AND INSULAR LOCATIONS10: Tourism Resilience in UK National Parks11: RESILIENCE AND PROTECTED AREA TOURISM IN PURNULULU NATIONAL PARK: UNDERSTANDING INTERACTIONS WITH A FOCUS ON COMMUNITY BENEFITS12: RESILIENCE AND TOURISM IN ISLANDS: INSIGHTS FROM THE CARIBBEAN13: RESILIENCE AND TOURISM IN REMOTE LOCATIONS: PITCAIRN ISLANDSPART 5: RESILIENCE AND THE TOURISM INDUSTRY14: ISSUES OF RESILIENCE, SUSTAINABILITY AND RESPONSIBILITY IN TOURISM15: BETTING ON CASINO TOURISM RESILIENCE: A CASE STUDY OF CASINO EXPANSION IN MACAO AND THE ASIA REGION16: RESILIENCE AS NEW POLITICAL REALITYPART 6: CONCLUSIONS
