This paper reports on a research project in Responsible Tourism (Prayag, Hosany, & Odeh, 2013) carried out at the University of Salento in collaboration with the local administrations of some seaside resorts in Southern Italy affected by migrants’ massive arrivals. This project, which involves tourists, migrants, university students in intercultural mediation and local communities, applies a model of Experiential-Linguistics (Lakoff & Johnson, 1999) to a multimodal Ethnopoetic analysis (Hymes, 2003; Kress, 2009) of (a) non-Western migrants’ traumatic accounts of journeys across the sea, reported in their own ELF variations (Guido, 2008, 2018), (b) Western epic narratives of Mediterranean dramatic voyages rendered from Ancient Greek and Latin into modern ELF variations, and (c) multimodal representations of the ethnopoetic rhythms of such ancient and modern sea-journey narratives through the production of a promotional video. The aim is to highlight the experiential common roots shared by classical-epic and contemporary migration narratives. Three main research phases will be explored, which are characterised by pedagogical activities meant to foster an active, multicultural community integration, as well as a view of tourism as an inclusive social experience.

通过ELF探索海上移民叙事来促进负责任的旅游：多元文化社区融合的体验语言方法

本文报告了萨兰托大学与意大利南部一些受移民大量入境影响的海滨度假胜地的地方行政部门合作开展的负责任旅游研究项目（Prayag，Hosany和Odeh，2013年）。该项目涉及游客，移民，跨文化中介和当地社区的大学生，将经验语言学模型（Lakoff＆Johnson，1999）运用于（a）的多模式民族学分析（Hymes，2003； Kress，2009）。非西方移民在自己的ELF变体中报道的关于海上航行的创伤性描述（Guido，2008，2018），（b）西方史诗般的地中海戏剧性叙事，从古希腊和拉丁语演变成现代ELF变体，（c）通过制作宣传视频，对这种古代和现代海上旅行叙事的民族主义节奏进行多模态表示。目的是突出古典史诗和当代移民叙事的共同经验根源。将探索三个主要的研究阶段，其特征是旨在促进活跃的多元文化社区融合的教学活动，以及将旅游业视为包容性的社会经验的观点。
