Book An Historical Geography of Tourism in Victoria  Australia

Download or read book An Historical Geography of Tourism in Victoria Australia written by Ian Clark and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Historical Geography of Tourism in Victoria, Australia – Case studies is concerned with the emergence of tourism in colonial Victoria, Australia. It explores a fundamental set of questions: how does a tourist site come in to being? How does a tourist gaze emerge in a ‘settler society’? How does an ‘era of discovery’ segue into ‘tourism’? And, how was the tourist map of Victoria created by settler colonists? Through the application of the classical models of MacCannell, Butler, and Gunn to construct the history of tourism at eight case studies, this work shows that Victoria’s tourism landscape is dynamic and constantly changing. There are many other significant natural and cultural attractions in Victoria and much more research needs to be undertaken to understand more fully the evolution of Victoria’s tourism landscape.

Download or read book A Tour of the Mines written by Ian D. Clark and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently when looking through nineteenth century travel accounts of visitors to Victoria, Australia, that are in my personal library, I was struck by the number of published accounts from visitors who spent time in Ballarat. In assembling 126 discrete accounts from visitors spanning its first fifty years (1851 until 1901), I realised that here was a largely untapped resource. In assembling this archive of published visitor accounts, I have sought to extract their impressions of Ballarat and its immediate surrounds, including Buninyong, which is now part of the City of Ballarat. I have arranged the sources in alphabetical order within each decade, and where necessary I have provided each account with a brief contextual introduction. I have deliberately chosen to reproduce only published material. This archive is a trove of material that is rich and rewarding for many uses and users – for those looking to understand the evolution of a city from an Indigenous landscape and the contribution of gold mining to this development, the resource is indeed a rich quarry. The views presented here are from men and women, from clergymen, from British, Irish, Indian, American, Canadian, French, German, Hungarian, and other natonalities, from members of royal families, politicians, authors, journalists and other people with an interest in seeing this city that had sprung from gold. From the perspective of the evolution of tourism in Ballarat, these sources provide unparalleled glimpses of the transformation of a swamp into Lake Wendouree, muddy tracks transformed into wide and impressive streets, and botanical gardens and statuary that never failed to impress visitors. We see Ballarat transformed from a crude gold mining town into a grand regional city. A fundamental rationale for many visitors to Ballarat was the attraction of gold mining, and the opportunity to don work clothes and go down into the mines to see them in operation. This is Volume One spanning the years from 1851 to 1861.
