Università Roma Tre

The programme proposes an itinerary consisting of works of poetry, fiction and non-fiction that elaborate on different aspects of the relationship between man and nature, with a specific focus on the 'literarisation' of this relationship between the Renaissance and Romanticism and on the interpretation of the specificities of the Spanish landscape in the literary and non-fiction elaboration between the second half of the 19th century and the 20th century. The programme closes with an essay that addresses the problem of 'España vacía', anticipated by Julio Llamazares' novel (1988). We will thus have the opportunity to reflect not only on a very topical issue (that of the difficult balance between man and nature, between anthropised and non-anthropised spaces), but also on the specific languages of fiction, poetry and the essay.
