Tourism, Culture, Society and Language - It includes the cultural and historical dimensions, the sociological and anthropological approaches to tourism, and the ‘tourism products’ (e.g. culture and religion, heritage, literature, gastronomy and a broad range of the so-called ‘new’ forms of tourism).

The new unifying theme of the HCTI-EA 4249 host research team is entitled “Leading lines” (“Lignes de force”). A continuation of the theme of the previous contract, “Power ratios” (“Rapport de force”), this theme also emphasizes relationships to images. Indeed, while “leading lines” is a concept specific to iconography, painting and architecture, it can nevertheless be perfectly applied to the structures of texts and discourse.
