Abstract

ABSTRACT This article proposes the metaphor of masquerade to explore the dynamics of ‘cure-ism’ and tourism, work and play, production and consumption, elitism and accessibility, authenticity and artifice through a study of Vichy, one of the leading European travel destinations in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It argues that performances of laborious leisure and productive consumption inherent in a Vichy cure reveal the resort as a distinctively modern place emblematic of the tensions at the heart of the French Third Republic.

本文通过对19世纪末20世纪初欧洲主要旅游目的地之一维希的研究，以假面舞会为隐喻，探讨“治疗主义”与旅游、工作与娱乐、生产与消费、精英主义与可及性、真实性与技巧之间的动态关系。它认为，维希治愈所固有的劳动休闲和生产性消费的表现，揭示了这个度假胜地是一个独特的现代场所，象征着法兰西第三共和国中心的紧张局势。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Tourism History is the primary venue for peer-reviewed scholarship covering all aspects of the evolution of tourism from earliest times to the postwar world. Articles address all regions of the globe and often adopt interdisciplinary approaches for exploring the past. The Journal of Tourism History is particularly (though not exclusively) interested in promoting the study of areas and subjects underrepresented in current scholarship, work for example examining the history of tourism in Asia and Africa, as well as developments that took place before the nineteenth century. In addition to peer-reviewed articles, Journal of Tourism History also features short articles about particularly useful archival collections, book reviews, review essays, and round table discussions that explore developing areas of tourism scholarship. The Editorial Board hopes that these additions will prompt further exploration of issues such as the vectors along which tourism spread, the evolution of specific types of ‘niche’ tourism, and the intersections of tourism history with the environment, medicine, politics, and more.
