Book Beyond the Traveller s Gaze

Download or read book Beyond the Traveller s Gaze written by Giorgia Alù and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2008 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a stimulating analysis of three non-canonical texts in different genres written by British women who lived in Sicily in the second half of the nineteenth and the beginning of the twentieth centuries. These texts cover a series of crucial political events as well as social and cultural changes which affected the history of Sicily during the period in question, all seen through the direct and indirect experiences of the authors. The book offers a historical perspective on the late-Victorian and Edwardian representations of post-Unification Italy. At the same time the author challenges current critical literature on travel writing which tends to analyse travel texts without making substantial distinction between works written during a brief visit to a foreign country and those produced during a long-term or permanent residence. The book adopts an interdisciplinary, comparative approach. The three texts are studied by looking at patterns of connection in other written and visual works produced during, or after, an experience in Italy. By drawing on theories of travel writing, genre and gender, along with visual and cultural studies, the author aims to verify how the three texts respond to being analysed as a distinct group, and hence define the specific roles and functions of expatriate women's writing.

This book was released on 2018-06-11 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first volume of Viaggiatori “Curatele” series seeks to recreate some scientific dialogues, namely meetings, exchanges and acquisition of theoretical and practical scientific knowledge, thus linking the cultural, historical and geographical context of America, Asia, Europe and Mediterranean Sea between the 16th and the 20th century. More specifically, the main objective is to consider the role of travellers as passeurs, as “intermediaries” for building and allowing the circulation of knowhow and the practical and theoretical knowledge from one continent to another.

Book La Sicilia dei grandi viaggiatori

Download or read book La Sicilia dei grandi viaggiatori written by Vincenzo Consolo and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nella grande tradizione del viaggio in Italia il capitolo dell'incontro con la Sicilia si distingue subito per l'assoluta incisività di tale esperienza.%%Giungere nell'isola, vedendola immersa nelle trasparenze marine del Mediterraneo, ha il senso immediato di un approdo spirituale. Il viaggiatore che nel '600 e nel '700 aveva nel suo bagaglio scorte inesauribili di immaginazione si propone con entusiasmo di ripercorrere itinerari segnati nella fantasia e nel mito. Le memorie omeriche, i luoghi sublimi della classicità greca, l'intreccio di una natura opulenta intricata con pietre e ruderi antichi non priveranno mai la sua esperienza reale del sapore straordinario dell'invisibile e dell'immaginario di questa tetra. Quando il viaggiatore, mosso da spirito illuministico e da stimoli eruditi, fruga nell'eccezionale scrigno di civiltà, di città, di monumenti, dì elementi della natura e della cultura materiale dell'Isola, riesce a riprodurre nei suoi diari e appunti di viaggio utili e preziose informazioni.

Book Mountain Dialogues from Antiquity to Modernity

Download or read book Mountain Dialogues from Antiquity to Modernity written by Dawn Hollis and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-05-06 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the longue dureé of Western culture, how have people represented mountains as landscapes of the imagination and as places of real experience? In what ways has human understanding of mountains changed – or stayed the same? Mountain Dialogues from Antiquity to Modernity opens up a new conversation between ancient and modern engagements with mountains. It highlights the ongoing relevance of ancient understandings of mountain environments to the postclassical and present-day world, while also suggesting ways in which modern approaches to landscape can generate new questions about premodern responses. It brings together experts from across many different disciplines and periods, offering case studies on topics ranging from classical Greek drama to Renaissance art, and from early modern natural philosophy to nineteenth-century travel writing. Throughout, essays engage with key themes of temporality, knowledge, identity, and experience in the mountain landscape. As a whole, the volume suggests that modern responses to mountains participate in rhetorical and experiential patterns that stretch right back to the ancient Mediterranean. It also makes the case for collaborative, cross-period research as a route both for understanding human relations with the natural world in the past, and informing them in the present.
