本文从游戏的多学科视角探讨极地探险旅游叙事。回顾了关于这一主题背后的动机的讨论,它特别考察了两种并行的方法:风险和洞察力理论。基于从冬季徒步旅行到北极旅游目的地获得的经验证据,本文认为,这些理论可能是成人游戏的特殊组成部分。本文探讨了风险,洞察力寻求和发挥之间的相互作用,特别强调被放置在北极探险游客所表现出的能力,物质性和身体技术。(C)2004爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
This paper discusses narratives of polar adventure tourism from a multi-disciplinary perspective of play. Reviewing discussions on the motivation behind this subject, it examines two concurrent approaches in particular: risk and insight theories. Based on empirical evidence obtained from a winter trekking trip to an Artic tourism destination, the paper argues that these theories may be particular components of adult play. The interplay among risk, insight seeking, and play is explored in this paper with a particular emphasis being placed on the competence, materiality, and bodily techniques demonstrated by Arctic adventure tourists.
