What is the tourism function of literature and art?

1. The contents reflected in tourism literature have the nature of tourism resources, and they are living and inspiring tourism resources. This kind of resources can also be called tourism literature resources. As we all know, tourism resources include natural landscape and human landscape, and each category includes many sub-resource categories. These resources attract tourists with their objective landscape characteristics. Visitors can learn about the art, characteristics, historical culture and scientific research value of the landscape through outdoor viewing, browsing and introduction of travel guides and tour guides. However, tourism is an important content and measure of high-quality life. In order to make the integration and combination of material civilization and spiritual civilization have a deeper level and connotation, people should make use of the function and artistic appeal of literature to combine the "scenery" as a resource with the "emotion" as a tourist, as well as the objective reality and rich imagination to realize the unity of tourism and literature, thus forming a literary tourism resource that has been "processed" by human beings to improve the appreciation of tourists. There are many such examples. For example, many of China's ancient landscape poems are pure landscapes, but more of them are the fusion of the author's thoughts and feelings. A considerable number of authors are far away from home, exiled because of relegation, or forced to drift from place to place because of war; Some live in seclusion in the countryside, in seclusion in the mountains, and some wander the rivers and lakes, boarding and mourning, seeking seclusion to win, and sending affection between mountains and rivers. In this kind of life, they express their homesickness, their sense of separation, their noble feelings, political ambitions, thoughts and feelings, such as breaking away from secular officialdom, eager to make achievements and looking forward to a better future. This kind of lyricism often comes from touching the scene, integrating feelings with the scene, and closely combining documentary with lyricism. Real feelings include time sequence, orientation, name, color, climate, environment, mountains and rivers, scenery, history, present situation, vagrancy, tourism interest, macro and micro, etc. Lyricism includes self-feeling, imagination and fantasy, which are indispensable and cannot be called tourism literature. The former is full of tourism color and has the functions of tour guide, fugue and introduction and appreciation; The latter is full of literary color, which can make you daydream, feel unrestrained and get a beautiful artistic feeling. Reading heroic poems, my blood is boiling and my ambition is rising; Reading fresh poems will make you fascinated and intoxicated with the artistic conception of beauty; Reading tragic poems will make you feel deeply and can't help crying; Reading plain poems will make you feel at peace and put aside all selfish thoughts. In short, lyricism and discussion in tourism literature can often make tourism resources such as mountains and rivers, flowers and trees have deeper significance. Therefore, tourism literature itself is a unique tourism resource, which is inspiring.

2. Tourism literature has the function of guiding and promoting tourism: tourism activities are advanced spiritual activities to capture aesthetic feeling, and "beauty" is the realm where poetry, painting and ideals blend. The capture of aesthetic feeling mainly depends on the beauty of scenic spots and the poetic description of these scenic spots in tourism literature. Although a dry introduction can appreciate some beauty, after using the artistic techniques of tourism literature, the beauty people get will be more primitive, sublimated and memorable. This aesthetic process is essentially the process of tour guide and tourism promotion. For example, on 1930, an author named Jiang Yong wrote a travel note "Half Moon in Taiwan Province Province" in Tourism magazine, and one of them wrote: "Prepare a motorboat and sail to the other side of Fan Hua Village to listen to the female singing. Sheng Fan is the oldest resident in Taiwan Province Province. According to the myth handed down from generation to generation, more than 40 people were born in Tai Po in the Qing Dynasty. Occasionally, they went into the hunting forest to chase a white deer, which disappeared in the water snake mountain in the west. People who have wandered in the mountains for three days are ecstatic when they see this lake (Sun Moon Lake). A detailed description of its terrain was made, and it was reported to the chief executive that it was a paradise given by heaven. If you make a boat out of wood, you will reach the other side, and then you will live at the foot of the mountain. Bangzi hits the stone with a pestle, which is in harmony with the human voice. The sound of the stone is clear and the sound of the song is particularly sad. " This article not only makes a wonderful comment on the scenery of Sun Moon Lake visited by the author with myths, but also combines with the singing of foreign women to produce a touching original beauty and beautiful background. Others will have a sense of charm, freshness and wonder after reading it, and they will also have the idea of going to Taiwan Province to see the scenery of Sun Moon Lake. Some places may not have beautiful scenery to attract tourists, or even enter the hinterland, but because a literary tourist wrote a poem, he became famous, and people will go there. For example, the frontier poems by Cen Can, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, describe the situation of sand and stones flying in the northwest desert, which is easy to read and reminds people of the world-famous "ghost town". This masterpiece of tourism literature has become an inducement for some tourists to explore strange risks here. There are also some tourist literature works, which only describe the sun, moon and stars, clouds, rain and snow, flowers and trees, birds, animals, insects and fish, food and local products, but because of the excellent use of literary and artistic language, they often get fascinating results. Because what is described here are the contents of tourism literature resources, such as the "luminous glass of grape wine" written in William Wang Liangzhou Ci, and the "shepherd boy refers to Xinghua Village" written by Du Mu Tomb-Sweeping Day, all of which have a profound effect on making travel interesting.

3. Tourism literature helps people cultivate their sentiments, improve their literacy, stimulate patriotic enthusiasm and spread spiritual civilization. China is an ancient civilization with a history of 5,000 years and is rich in tourism resources. Great Wall, Ancient Canal, Dunhuang Grottoes, Qufu Kong Lin, Beijing Forbidden City, etc. , unparalleled; Guilin landscape, Huangshan wonders, Three Gorges scenery and other natural scenery are rare. Through the description and introduction of tourism literature works, these strange mountains and different waters, places of interest, one scene and one thing, one mountain and one water are all integrated into the works. There are many tourist literature works in China, which are written in different ways. The author can read and write while walking. A work can lead people to nature, point out beautiful scenery and teach people to appreciate, appreciate and experience. By appreciating these works, people can understand the magnificent mountains and rivers and the long history of the motherland, thus arousing people's feelings of loving the motherland and the countryside, which is of great significance to cultivating ideal sentiments and noble morality. Especially those China people who live abroad, after reading these works, their thoughts are even more ups and downs. They are proud of being descendants of the Chinese people, and they feel attached to their motherland. They want to see their own country in person and feast their eyes.

4. Tourism literature is an important way to spread cultural knowledge. In essence, tourism activities are cultural activities in the eyes of tourists. The five links of food, clothing, housing, travel and purchase are material consumption, but the essence is cultural consumption. People satisfy their desire for novelty, knowledge, happiness and beauty through traveling, a special lifestyle. As a result, a comprehensive modern cultural phenomenon and large-scale cultural exchange activities have been formed. It can be seen that culture, whether classical or modern, plays an important role in the development of tourism. Tourists not only absorb the culture of the destination, but also bring the culture of the host country, forming a situation of mutual exchange and infiltration. In addition to direct observation and understanding, this kind of cultural exchange can be realized with the help of some books. Among them, a large number of literary works describing tourism resources have a unique role. For example, some people have never been to Beijing, but they know from their travel works that there are echo walls in the Great Wall and the Forbidden City in Beijing, and they also know the scientific truth that the echo walls speak in unison. Some tourists saw the "tablet without words" in Xi 'an, but he didn't know the origin of the tablet without words. However, only after he read the article introducing the "tablet without words" did he know that it was erected by Empress Wu Zetian, so that later generations could comment on her life's merits and demerits. Therefore, we say that a good tourism literature will not only stimulate your wanderlust, but also give you a lot of knowledge, which will benefit a lot after reading it. In this sense, tourism literature looks at tourism from a cultural perspective. For example, some scenic spots have cultural connotations, but some new place names appear to have low cultural level. Tourism literature should pay attention to this cultural phenomenon in the process of tourism. (Selected from Lu's Modern Tourism Geography)
