| Abstract: | The paper examines the presentation of Canadian author L. M. Montgomery at three literary tourism sites in Prince Edward Island, Canada. Using Goffman's suggestion that all social actions involve moral claims, the paper analyzes site geography, signare, orientation speeches, policy documents, as well as interviews with key information to show that site guardians argue for the authenticity of their particular site by making various truth claims and excluding rival claims. |
