Book Sun Lust to Sun Plus

Download or read book Sun Lust to Sun Plus written by Acolla Lewis-Cameron and published by University of the West Indies Press. This book was released on 2023-12-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlock the secrets of sustainable Caribbean tourism in Sun Lust to Sun Plus: Niche Tourism in the Caribbean, a comprehensive overview of niche tourism development strategies that are restructuring the paradisiacal destinations of the Caribbean. Discover how the small island developing states (SIDS) of the Caribbean are redefining their approach to tourism, moving from traditional mass tourism, the "Sun Lust" of the past, to a more sustainable and diverse model, the "Sun Plus" of the present and future. Through an exploration of existing and potential tourism niches in the region, Accola Lewis-Cameron and Leslie-Ann Jordan-Miller lead an impressive group of scholars who, through case studies and analyses of various niche tourism products, highlight the unique opportunities and challenges facing SIDS in the Caribbean and provide recommendations for creating a more resilient and sustainable industry. While each chapter in this edited volume offers a unique perspective, they collectively provide a complete understanding of niche tourism's role in bolstering and sustaining a vibrant and dynamic Caribbean tourism offer. Explore the concept of music tourism in Trinidad and the role of slow food in culinary tourism in the Caribbean. Dive into the challenges and opportunities of cruise tourism in Cozumel and the promise of medical tourism in the Cayman Islands. Uncover the potential of sustainable ecotourism in Dominica as a post-COVID-19 recovery strategy, and uncover the potential of educational tourism in Grenada as a socio-economic force. The final chapters conclude with a clarion call for further tourism diversification away from the Caribbean's traditional 3S product offering (sun, sea and sand) and for the introduction of a scorecard approach to ensure that the future of tourism in these tropical paradises is robust and sustainable. From a reading of this collection, academics, students and practitioners will gain invaluable insights and best practices that bridge the gap between tourism management theory and its application.

Book Literature and Painting In Quebec

Download or read book Literature and Painting In Quebec written by William J. Berg and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2013-02-04 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique study explores how Quebec's landscapes have been represented in both literature and visual art throughout the centuries, from the writing of early explorers such as Cartier and Champlain to work by prominent contemporary authors and artists from the province. William J. Berg traces recurrent images and themes within these creations through the most significant periods in the development of a Quebecois identity that was threatened initially by the wilderness and indigenous populations, and later by the dominance of British and American influences. Focusing on the interplay between nature and culture in landscape representation, Literature and Painting in Quebec contends that both have reflected and fashioned the meaning of French-Canadian nationhood. As such, Literature and Painting in Quebec presents a new perspective to approach the notion of national identity, a quest that few groups have engaged in more persistently than the Quebecois.
