| Summary: | The contemporary rural space has asserted itself as a reserve of environmental resources and goods as well as a storehouse of memory and cultural heritage. The aim of this brief essay is to try and understand how reinventing and idealising country life in the past, throws light on the principle of patrimonialisation through rediscovering new roles (a second life brought about by rural tourism). This process is sustained by means of inventing, staging and simulating a local feature and by contriving historical continuity inherent to rural spaces, thus providing the basis for cultivating new touristic demands. |
