ABSTRACT

This chapter focuses on the work of the Swiss traveller, Nicolas Bouvier seeking to understand how motivations and, in particular, emotions, feelings, sensations and impressions experienced along the journey are artistically expressed. It focuses on the interrelationship between travelling/tourism and emotions in the work of one of the landmark writers of travel literature from the second half of the twentieth century. The artistic works by Bouvier will therefore serve as a departure point for a discussion that aims to provide new perspectives for research about emotions, artistic expression, travel and tourism at the intersection of social sciences, literature and other arts. The chapter describes how this work has encouraged others to travel, write and express themselves by artistic means in the context of an interpretation of this emotional framework. Bouvier's thoughts and impressions proffer interesting new ways of looking into the act of travelling and the motivations implied in the motion of people.
