Centred around the concept of imagination, the authors demonstrate how popular culture and media are becoming increasingly important in the ways in which places and localities are imagined and how they also subsequently stimulate a desire to visit the actual places in which people’s favourite stories are set. With examples drawn from around the globe, the book offers a unique study of the role of narratives conveyed through media in stimulating and reflecting desire in tourism. This book will have appeal in a wide variety of academic disciplines, ranging from media and cultural studies to fan and tourism studies, cultural geography, literary studies, and cultural sociology. Nicky van Es, MSc, is currently a lecturer at Erasmus University Rotterdam. Next to teaching within the International Bachelor of Arts & Culture Studies, he co-founded the MA programme Place, Culture & Tourism (2018). In addition, he is working towards finalizing his dissertation (exp. 2020) on literary tourism as part of the Locating Imagination project, funded by the Dutch Science Foundation. Among his published research articles are “Chasing Sleuths” (Annals of Tourism Research, 2016) and “Capital Crime Cities” (European Journal of Cultural Studies, 2016) and several book chapters, and he is the main editor of the upcoming edited volume Locating Imagination in Popular Culture (Routledge, 2020). Stijn Reijnders, PhD, is Full Professor of Cultural Heritage, in Particular in Relation to Tourism and Popular Culture at Erasmus University Rotterdam. His research focuses on the intersection of media, culture, and tourism. Currently he leads two large international research projects: Worlds of Imagination, funded by the European Research Council, and Locating Imagination, funded by the Dutch Science Foundation. He has published many research papers and has co-edited The Ashgate Research Companion to Fan Cultures (2014), Film Tourism in Asia: Evolution, Transformation and Trajectory (2017), and Locating Imagination: Place, Tourism and Belonging in Popular Culture (2020). Leonieke Bolderman, PhD, is Assistant Professor, Cultural Geography and Tourism Geography and Planning at the University of Groningen, the Netherlands. Her research concerns the role and meaning of music heritage and tourism in urban and regional development, on which she has published in various journals and edited volumes. Abby Waysdorf, PhD, is currently a postdoctoral researcher with the CADEAH project, researching how individuals and groups reappropriate and recirculate audiovisual heritage materials. She did a research master at Utrecht University in media and performance studies, with a specialty in sport media and fandom, and her PhD at Erasmus University Rotterdam, where her dissertation, “Placing Fandom,” focused on film tourism and fan use of place. Her general research interests are audience practices and uses of media, fandom, the television industry, and how all of these things intersect.

  • BAB I PENDAHULUAN A. Latar Belakang Masalah Manusia Adalah
    BAB I PENDAHULUAN A. Latar Belakang Masalah Manusia adalah mahluk sosial, karena itu manusia tidak lepas dari berkomunikasi dengan satu sama lain. Untuk bisa berkomunikasi satu sama lain manusia menggunakan bahasa sebagai alat. Kridalaksana (1993: hlm.21) mengemukakan “ Bahasa adalah sistem lambang bunyi yang arbitrer yang digunakan oleh para anggota kelompok sosial untuk bekerjasama, berkomunikasi, dan mengidentifikasi diri”. Jadi, bahasa dapat digunakan untuk berkomunikasi satu sama lain . Namun, untuk berkomunikasi satu sama lain biasanya tidak hanya menggunakan satu bahasa saja, bisa jadi menggunakan dua bahasa atau bahkan lebih. Ini dikarenakan komunikasi yang tidak hanya dilakukan satu negara saja, bahkan komunikasi dapat dilakukan dengan seluruh negara. Dan di era globalisasi seperti ini diperlukan penguasaan lebih dari satu bahasa untuk memudahkan dalam menjalani persaingan. Bilingualisme adalah kemampuan menggunakan dua bahasa yang meliputi keterampilan menyimak, berbicara, membaca dan menulis(Abdullah, 2012:hlm.170). Di Indonesia sendiri masyarakatnya dapat dikatakan bilingual karena menguasai dua variasi bahasa atau lebih. Contohnya, di Indonesia yang terdapat banyak provinsi, dan di masing-masing provinsi tersebut mereka mempunyai bahasa daerah masing-masing, Provinsi DKI Jakarta dengan bahasa betawinya, provinsi Sumatera Barat dengan bahasa Minangnya, Provinsi Jawa Barat dengan bahasa Sundanya, dan lain-lain. Jika orang provinsi Jawa Barat bertemu dengan orang provinsi DKI Jakarta, maka mereka akan menggunakan bahasa Indonesia atau menyisipkan bahasa Indonesia pada saat berkomunikasi agar bisa saling mengerti. Peristiwa tutur inilah yang disebut Bilingualisme. Alia Ayuning Tiyas, 2019 ANALISIS ALIH KODE DALAM DRAMA JEPANG MASSAN Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia │ repository.upi.edu │ perpustakaan.upi.edu 2 Menurut Wardhaugh(1998:hlm.100), Dengan demikian, di dalam masyarakat multibahasa terdapat bermacam-macam kode, yang antara lain berupa dialek, sosiolek, serta gaya yang digunakan dalam berkomunikasi.

    Gamespace Plaay & Architecture in Videoogames Georgia Leigh McGregor Doctor of Philosophy School of Media Arts, University of New South Wales 2009 ii Abstract Videogames are created for play. In videogames play takes place in an artificially constructed environment – in gamespace. Gameplay occurs in gamespace. To understand videogames, it is essential to understand how their spaces are implicated in play. This thesis asks what are the relationships between play and space in videogames? This thesis examines the relationships between space and play by looking at how architecture is constructed in gamespace and by looking at gamespace as an architectonic construct. In short, this thesis examines the architecture in and of gamespace. The relationships between space and play in videogames are examined by looking at the structure of gamespace, by looking at the differences between real space and gamespace and by analysing architectural and spatial functionality. This thesis discovers a series of important relationships between space and play, arguing that gamespace is used to create, manipulate and control gameplay, while gameplay dictates and influences the construction of gamespace. Particular forms of play call for particular constructions of gamespace. Particular types of gamespace construct play in particular ways. This thesis identifies a number of ways in which gamespace is configured for play. Finally this thesis operates as a conceptual framework for understanding gamespace and architecture in videogames. iii Contents Abstract ii Acknowledgements
