Iberian Interfaces
This book explores a key historical moment for literary and cultural relations between Spain and Portugal. Focusing on the period between 1870 and 1930, it analyses the contacts between Portuguese and Spanish writers and artists of this period, showing that, at least among the cultural elites, there were intense and fruitful dialogues across political and linguistic borders. The book presents the Iberian Peninsula as a complex and multilingual cultural polysystem in which diverse literary cultures coexist and are mutually dependent upon each other. It offers a panoramic view of Iberian literary and cultural history, encompassing not just Portuguese and Spanish literary productions, but also Catalan, Galician and Basque works. Combining a clear theoretical foundation with deep historical knowledge and references to specific texts and works, the book offers a thorough introduction to Iberian literature in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century.

The three Editors, five Scientific Coordinators (João Luís...

"A novel par excellence that is destined to become a classic' of almost byzantine splendour . . .

But it doesn't belong to the mice or the woodworm, as he first imagines. Nor is it the voice of God, as he comes to believe. It belongs to young Isaac Dresner, who takes refuge in the cellar of Vogel's bird shop on the run from the soldier who shot his best friend. Soon Vogel comes to rely on it for advice: he cannot make a sale w...

Viaggio nell’inquietudine
Viaggio nell'inquietudine: Stress, lavoro e i segnali di una incipiente instabilità psichica spingono il protagonista - appassionato conoscitore del pensiero dello scrittore portoghese Fernando Pessoa - a compiere un Viaggio nella città di Lisbona alla ricerca di se stesso. Ad accompagnarlo in questa sua profonda e pericolosa missione si unisce la dolce figura di Anna, donna evanescente e fiabesca, semplice e silenziosa ma con una grossa carica di umanità e di realismo. La ricerca si conclude felicemente ma nuove Inquietudini attendono i due protagonisti di questo fantastico viaggio attraverso le strade di Lisbona, fra tramonti, nebbie e pioviggini ma con lo sguardo proteso su Napoli.
