Antarctica’s wilderness values, even though specifically recognized by the Environmental Protocol to the Antarctic Treaty, are rarely considered in practice. This deficiency is especially apparent with regard to a more and more increasing human footprint caused, among others, by a growing number of tourists visiting the region and conducting a broad variety of activities. On the basis of a detailed study of three Arctic wilderness areas – the Hammastunturi Wilderness Reserve (Finland), the Archipelago of Svalbard (Norway) and the Denali National Park and Preserve (Alaska, United States) – as well as the relevant policies and legislation in these countries, Antje Neumann identifies numerous ‘lessons learnt’ that can serve as suggestions for improving the protection of wilderness in Antarctica.

Jeff hat sich auf eine Baude in den Alpen zurückgezogen. In die Einsamkeit der Bergwelt, hat er gesagt und sich bedeutsam gefühlt. Die Einsamkeit, die weißen Berge, das weiße Schreibpapier - alles macht ihn verrückt. Er kann nicht arbeiten. Er hat Fluchtgedanken. In diese Situation platzt ein Telefonat: sein verhasster Bruder, der ihm einst nach dem Leben trachtete. Katharina liegt im Sterben. Sie will dich sehen. Aufgelegt. Keine Rückrufmöglichkeit. Er fährt. Nach 14 Stunden Fahrt durch Eis und Schnee kommt er bei der Sterbenden im Krankenhaus an. Er habe ihr Leben auf dem Gewissen, und deswegen solle er ihren letzten Willen erfüllen. Sie wolle auf ihrer Insel am Strand sterben, und er müsse sie dort hinbringen. Jeff gehorcht. Er hat Schuldgefühle. Er legt sie ins Auto und fährt weiter nach Norden. Er durchlebt alle alten Ängste, allen Hass, alle Unsicherheit seines Lebens. Er überlegt, wie er die Sterbende loswerden könnte. Ein Blick auf den Zettel mit der Fahrtroute, die Katharina ihm in die Hand gedrückt hat, lässt ihn erschrecken: mit der Fahrt hat sein Bruder ihn in die Falle gelockt. Er ist vernichtet. Sie erreichen das Ziel ...
This book explores ways in which screen-based storyworlds transfix, transform, and transport us imaginatively, physically, and virtually to the places they depict or film. Topics include fantasy quests in computer games, celebrity walking tours, dark tourism sites, Hobbiton as theme park, surf movies, and social gangs of Disneyland. How physical, virtual, and imagined locations create a sense of place through their immediate experience or visitation is undergoing a revolution in technology, travel modes, and tourism behaviour. This edited collection explores the rapidly evolving field of screen tourism and the affective impact of landscape, with provocative questions and investigations of social groups, fan culture, new technology, and the wider changing trends in screen tourism. We provide critical examples of affective landscapes across a wide range of mediums (from the big screen to the small screen) and locations. This book will appeal to students and scholars in film and tourism, as well as geography, design, media and communication studies, game studies, and digital humanities.

This book is illustrated. A poor schoolmaster named Benson died, not long ago, in a little town on the south-east coast of England, which shall be called Cranby. He left an only son, Jeffrey, and an elder brother, Jacob, to mourn his loss. The son mourned for his father profoundly, for he loved him much. The brother mourned him moderately, for he was a close-fisted, hard-hearted, stern man of the law, whose little soul, enclosed in a large body, had not risen to the conception of any nobler aim in life than the acquisition of wealth, or any higher enjoyment than a social evening with men like himself. The son Jeffrey was a free-and-easy, hearty, good-natured lad, with an overgrown and handso...
