Essay question is: Critically
\nevaluate how the visual functions in relation to either:<\/span><\/p>\n

a. Tourism and
\ntravel<\/span><\/p>\n

OR<\/span><\/p>\n

b. History and
\nmemorials<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Please read the Power point lecture slides I attached.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
2. Use and answer these three seminar questions for the essay: <\/div>\n
– How powerful is the \u2018tourist gaze\u2019 in
\nterms of constructing place for us? How might we use the tourist gaze to ‘get
\nat’ what is happening in normal society? What examples can you think of,
\nwhereby the tourist gaze reveals something about ‘normal’ society to us?<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
– <\/span>How
\ndoes film\/TV <\/span>programmes\/games\/social
\nmedia <\/span>trends shape
\nthe identity of a place? <\/span>\u200b<\/span>Do
\ncertain places naturally encourage <\/span>certain media representations, or does <\/span>the media construct our understandings <\/span>of place? <\/span>Does the
\nmediation of place through new kinds of media (film, TV, digital devices) add
\nto, or detract from the authenticity of the tourist experience?<\/span><\/font><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/font><\/div>\n
– Is dark tourism a good thing for cultural memory of atrocity? Should we encourage more dark tourism? How might dark tourism change our relationship to, or understanding of, the past?<\/span><\/font><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
