Abstract

Nostalgia is vital in fostering emotional connections between tourists and places by symbolizing and consolidating individuals' collective memory. This paper considers 60 historical and cultural districts from the China Central Television documentary series Nostalgia in Mind to investigate nostalgia. We specifically introduce place narratives and analyze the dimensions and connotations of nostalgia culture. Our empirical results reveal four dimensions associated with nostalgia, namely time, space, memory, and emotion. In addition, we explore various factors affecting nostalgia (e.g., nostalgia subjects, nostalgia carriers, nostalgia touchpoints, and nostalgia emotions), which further shape historical and cultural districts' nostalgia culture. To better understand this type of culture, we build a theoretical framework along the dimensions of instrumental–expressive and concrete–abstract. This framework contributes to a richer understanding of the nature and impact of nostalgia and serves as a reference for tourism destination marketing and management of historical and cultural districts in an urbanization context.

了解历史文化街区的乡愁：我们能从纪录片中学到什么？

乡愁通过象征和巩固个人的集体记忆，在促进游客与地方之间的情感联系方面发挥着至关重要的作用。本文从中央电视台系列纪录片《乡愁》中的 60 个历史文化街区入手，对乡愁进行研究。我们特别介绍了地方叙事，并分析了乡愁文化的维度和内涵。我们的实证结果揭示了与乡愁相关的四个维度，即时间、空间、记忆和情感。此外，我们还探讨了影响乡愁的各种因素（如乡愁主体、乡愁载体、乡愁触角和乡愁情感），这些因素进一步塑造了历史文化街区的乡愁文化。为了更好地理解这类文化，我们从工具-表达和具体-抽象两个维度构建了一个理论框架。这一框架有助于加深对乡愁性质和影响的理解，并为城市化背景下历史文化街区的旅游目的地营销和管理提供参考。
