The Rigi-Kulm visitors’ book: questions of authenticity and intertextuality
ABSTRACT When Murray’s first Swiss guidebook came out in 1838, its section dedicated to the Rigi-Kulm, one of the most popular sites of a Swiss tour at the time, summarised existing information about the summit and its inn, giving a detailed description of what tourists could expect. It noted that the Rigi-Kulm Inn was one of three places in Switzerland known for its visitors’ books, and included a poem, allegedly quoted from the inn album, which subsequently gained its own fame by circulating in print. This article attempts to understand the role of the visitors’ book by highlighting the intertextuality between the entries in the visitors’ books, the guidebooks and the travelogues, and by discussing how these prefiguring texts influenced British tourists in their quest for authenticity at the Rigi-Kulm.

Founded in 1997 by Tim Youngs, Studies in Travel Writing is an international, refereed journal dedicated to research on travel texts and to scholarly approaches to them. Unrestricted by period or region of study, the journal allows for specific contexts of travel writing to be established and for the application of a range of scholarly and critical approaches. It welcomes contributions from within, between or across academic disciplines; from senior scholars and from those at the start of their careers. It also publishes original interviews with travel writers, special themed issues, and book reviews.
