TY - JOUR ID - 53201 AU - Weiss, Michaela PY - 2021 TI - Literary tourism and the shaping of space and identity in Victoria Hislop's novel The Island JF - Brno Studies in English VL - 48 IS - 1 SP - 275-288 EP - 275-288 SN - 05246881 KW - literary tourism KW - The Island KW - historical romance KW - tourist gaze KW - Spinalonga UR - http://hdl.handle.net/11222.digilib/144305 N2 - The paper discusses the historical romantic novel The Island (2005) by contemporary British writer Victoria Hislop (b. 1959) in the context of literary tourism. Hislop set her novel on Crete, depicting the tragic and a long-time silenced part of Greek history connected with the leper colony on the island of Spinalonga in the years 1903 to 1957. Hislop's novel became an international bestseller and turned the island, together with the Elounda Gulf and town Agios Nikolaos, into one of the most popular tourist areas in Crete. Focusing on the effect of the novel on the place, the paper predominantly discusses the presentation of the setting from a perspective of literary tourism studies, addressing the psychological impact of a literary travel on the tourist-protagonist.
