Working Definitions in Literature and Tourism: a research guide was developed by Research Group Lit & Tour and brings together the contributions of various experts on concepts in the field of literature and tourism.

As a new field of research, Literature and Tourism seeks to establish the limits of its corpus; create or adapt methodologies; and find a set of concepts/definitions from which all researchers can operate. Working Definitions in Literature and Tourism: a research guide meets this need and brings together more 60 contributions from 40 experts worldwide.

The authors were invited to write their “entries” as a starting point for future research on the topic; therefore, suggestions for further reading are also included in this guide. The publication includes concepts such as bookshop tourism; collective memory; comparative literature; cultural anthropology; cultural heritage; cultural identity; cultural landscape; cultural tourism; dark literary tourism; film-induced literary tourism; intangible cultural heritage; library hotel; literary cartography; literary cities; literary hotel; literary landscape; literary routes and education; literary tourism; tourist literature; travel guides; virtual literary places; among others.

Therefore, this book is a meeting point for concepts and definitions; and a starting point for new and additional research.
