Viagem a Portugal: contributos para a criação de uma rota saramaguiana
Year: 2022
Type: article
Abstract: This essay reflects on the importance and relevance of creating a tourist route underpined on José Saramago's Journey to Portugal. Covering the entire continental territory of Portugal and passing through hundreds of locations, the development of this route will not only stimulate depressed areas, but also contribute to a greater literacy of tourists. The World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) recognizes the benefits of tourism routes for the territories where they are located. From this perspective, it is intended that this route will branch out according to the logic followed in this book, allowing tourists to experience, as much as possible, the experience of the narrator-traveller José Saramago in his journey through the country. The creation of a Saramago route emerges, therefore, as a corollary of the critical reflection present in this essay.
