Abstract

Traveling to places of beauty is simple in theory. In practice, however, it is a complex contradictory affair. On one’s way to beauty, one has to cross territories of the ugly and banal to leave them behind, at least in the last 180 years – the big bang of modern tourism with steamships, railroads and grand hotels. Once arrived at your destination, you don’t find yourself alone, but in company; it doesn’t always meet your own aesthetic standards. What terms have authors been using since the first half of the 19th century to describe these changing relationships, and how do they position themselves within them?
