IMAGE OF THE WILDERNESS IN THE EUROPEAN CULTURE/ ANTHROPOLOGY OF WILDERNESS

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Journey through beasts, savages to the middle of nowhere from Ullysses to

Charles Darwin. Concept of the `noble savage` from overeseas and concept of

peasant in national countryside. The expedition: from the colonial diary to

the colonial novel. Maugli, Tarsan, King-Kong and the others... Orientalism

of Edward Said in exotic overseas and Maria Todorova in the marginal

Europe. Looking for the exotics in the European countryside. The

wilderness, ecological movement, environmentalism and the concept of

national park. Scauting, Czech `tramping` and famous Czech weekend

cottages... Advertising, marketing and the wilderness: Marlboro, horserider

and the idea of freedom. Touristbussines and exotic holiday journeys.
