📖 The Scoop
The Creative Tourist brings together four broad areas of academic scholarship: creative tourism, sociology, well-being and new materialism. In acknowledging the intimate entanglement between materiality and human sensuous experiences, the book seeks to examine the relational nature of the tourist experience of collaborative, heritage-based activities.
Authors Xavier Matteucci and Melanie Smith explore the multiple dimensions of the creative tourism experience, positioning the creative tourist within various tourist typologies and modes of experience. The Creative Tourist extends the growing body of knowledge on creative tourism by drawing from new materialist philosophy to discuss social eudaimonia as a happiness concept, which foregrounds collective well-being rather than individual flourishing.
This latest addition to the highly successful The Tourist Experience series is suitable for both undergraduate and postgraduate students, university lecturers, creative entrepreneurs, and research communities exploring creative experiences in contexts such as leisure, lifestyle, cultural tourism, slow tourism, responsible tourism, ethical and sustainable aspects of tourism, social tourism and destination management.
