However, only a few have provided a holistic analysis of the relationship between Scott and Scottish tourism from the 19th to the 21st Century in a theoretical framework. This book reveals how the myth of Scott has been created and appropriated at different stages of the development of the Scottish tourism industry by drawing upon Roland Barthes' analysis of myth. The study is largely based on an analysis of 110 travel accounts and 48 guidebooks written between the 1770s and the 2010s. The author argues that Scott's influence on the Scottish tourism industry is strongly ensured by a wide participation of various actors in continuously changing forms"-- |cProvided by publisher. 504 Includes bibliographical references. 505 0 Introduction -- Scott and mythology -- Scott as a promoter of Scottish tourism in the Romantic Period -- Scott and the guidebook industry in the Victorian Period -- Tourist practices : tourists as readers of Scott and myth creators -- Post-Scott tourism and Disneyfied Scott-land -- Conclusion. 600 10 Scott, Walter, |d1771-1832 |xInfluence. 650 0 Tourism |zScotland |xHistory. 650 0 Travelers' writings, English |zScotland |xHistory and criticism. 651 0 Scotland |xDescription and travel. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85118818 651 0 Scotland |xIn literature. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008116914 830 0 Scottish studies international ; |vv. 42. 902 dws |bm |6a |7m |dv |f1 |e20190422 904 pad |bo |hm |cb |e20190116 914 (OCoLC)on1043970760 |bOCoLC |cmatch |d20240508 |eprocessed |f1043970760
