Der Leuchtturm
Ar-Men, der Leuchtturm, von dem hier erzählt wird, ist eine Legende: viele Kilometer vor der bretonischen Küste, so weit wie kein anderer, steht er einsam und stolz in den Fluten des Atlantiks, auf einem schmalen Felsen, der nur bei Ebbe aus dem Wasser ragt.

It is now considered as a central metaphor and topos in literature, and literary criticism has seized space as a new tool. Similarly, literature turns out to be an ideal field for geography. This book examines the cross-fertilization of geography and literature as disciplines, languages and methodologies. In the past two decades, several methods of analysis focusing on the relationship and interconnectedness between literature and geography have flourished.
