What are the functions of tourism literature and art?

1. The content reflected by tourism literature has the attributes of tourism resources, and it is a living and inspiring tourism resource. 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. However, these resources attract tourists with their objective scenery characteristics, and tourists can understand 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 synthesis and combination of material civilization and spiritual civilization have a deeper level and connotation, people should use 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, so as to improve the appreciation of tourists. There are many such examples. For example, in ancient Chinese landscape poems, although many of them are purely landscapes, more works are the integration of the author's thoughts and feelings. A considerable number of authors are far away from home, and they are exiled because of relegation, or forced to drift from place to place by war; Some live in seclusion in the countryside, hiding in the mountains and forests, and some wander the rivers and lakes, boarding and mourning, seeking seclusion and winning, and sending their feelings between the mountains and rivers. In this kind of life, they expressed their thoughts of 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, blending 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, wandering, travel interest, macro and micro, etc. Lyricism includes self-feeling, imagination and fantasy, and it can't be called tourism literature without one of them. The former is rich in 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 gain a beautiful artistic feeling. If you read heroic poems, your blood will boil and your lofty aspirations will arise; Reading fresh poems will make you fascinated and intoxicated with the artistic conception of beauty; Reading tragic poems will make you feel so deeply that you can't help crying; Reading plain poetry will make you feel at peace and throw away all selfish thoughts. In a word, the lyricism and discussion in tourism literature can often make tourism resources such as landscapes, flowers and trees have a deeper meaning. Therefore, tourism literature itself is a unique tourism resource with incentives.

2. Tourism literature has the function of guiding and promoting tourism: tourism activity is a high-level spiritual activity to capture aesthetic feeling, and "beauty" is a realm where poetry, painting and ideals are mixed. The capture of aesthetic feeling mainly depends on the beauty of scenic spots, and also depends on the poetic description of these scenic spots in tourism literature. Dry introduction can certainly appreciate some beauty, but after using the artistic techniques of tourism literature, the beauty people get will be more primitive and primitive, so that beauty can be sublimated and memorable. This aesthetic process is essentially the process of tour guide and tour promotion. For example, in 193, an author named Jiang Yong wrote a travel note "Taiwan Province's Half Moon" in Travel Magazine, one of which read: "Prepare a motorboat to sail to the Huafan village on the other side and listen to the songs of the Tibetan women. Shengfan is the oldest resident in Taiwan Province. According to the myth passed down from generation to generation, there used to be more than 4 people who were born in Tai Po, Qing Dynasty. Occasionally, they went into the hunting forest to chase a white deer, and the deer disappeared as far as Shuishe Mountain in the west. Those who wander in the mountains for three days are ecstatic to see this lake (Sun Moon Lake). Make a detailed description of its terrain and report it to the chief, thinking that it is a paradise given by heaven. If you make a boat out of wood, you will get to the other side, and then you will live at the foot of the mountain. Bangko is to hit the stone with a pestle, which is in harmony with the sound of Man, the sound of stone is clear and clear, and the song is especially sad. " This essay not only makes a wonderful comment on the scenery of Sun Moon Lake visited by the author by using myths, but also combines with the singing of the exotic women, resulting in a touching original beauty and a beautiful background. After seeing it, others will have a sense of charm, freshness and wonder, and the idea of visiting the scenery of Sun Moon Lake in Taiwan will also arise. In some places, there may be no beautiful scenery to attract tourists, even into the badlands, but because a literary tourist wrote a poem, it began to become famous, and people will go there. For example, the frontier poems written by Cen Can, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, "and sand, up from the desert, flies yellow into heaven", "and valleys, fill with the broken boulders like peck measures, that downward, headlong, follow the wind" describe the situation of flying sand and stones in the desert of northwest China, which is easy to remind people of the world-famous "ghost city" after reading. This masterpiece of tourism literature has become an incentive for some tourists to explore strange risks here. There are also some tourist literature works that only describe the sun, moon and stars, clouds, rain and snow, flowers, trees, birds, animals, insects and fish, delicious food and local products, but because of the excellent use of literary and artistic language, they can often get the effect of causing fun. Because what is described here is the content of tourism literature resources, such as "the luminous glass of grapes and wine" written in William Wang's Liangzhou Ci, and "the shepherd boy points to Xinghua Village" written in Du Mu's Qingming Festival, 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, years, and its tourism resources are very rich. The Great Wall, the ancient canal, Dunhuang Grottoes, Qufu Konglin, the Forbidden City in Beijing, etc., are unparalleled; Guilin landscape, Huangshan wonders, Three Gorges scenery and other natural scenery are rare. Through the description and introduction of tourist literature works, these strange mountains and beautiful waters, scenic spots and historical sites, with one scene, one thing, one mountain and one water, are all fused in the works. There are many tourist literature works in our country, all of which are written in a different way. The author can read and write while walking. A work can take people to nature, indicate the 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 plays a great role in cultivating ideal sentiments and cultivating noble morality. Especially those Chinese who live abroad, after reading these works, their thoughts are even more ups and downs, and they feel proud of being descendants of the Chinese people, and they feel attached to their motherland, and they want to visit their country in person and feast their eyes on it.

4. Tourism literature is an important way to spread cultural knowledge. In essence, tourism activities are cultural activities from the perspective of tourists. The five links of food, shelter, transportation, travel and shopping are material consumption, but the essence is cultural consumption. People satisfy their desire for novelty, knowledge, pleasure and beauty through traveling, a special way of life. 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 country where they are located, forming a situation of mutual exchange and infiltration. In addition to direct observation and understanding, this kind of cultural exchange should 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 from their travel works, they know that the Great Wall and the Forbidden City in Beijing have echo walls, and they also know the scientific reason why the echo walls respond 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, after he read the article introducing the "tablet without words", he knew that it was Empress Wu Zetian who set it up to let future generations comment on her life's merits and demerits. Therefore, we say that a good tourism literary work will not only stimulate your wanderlust, but also give you a lot of knowledge, which will benefit you 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 a low cultural level. Tourism literature should take care of this kind of cultural phenomenon in the process of tourism. (Selected from Modern Tourism Geography by Lu Yunting)
