Towards a literary geography

Abstract

French original by Michel Collet, translation by Ida Alves. An enquiry into the assumptions, implications and methods of a literary geography, revealing the productivity of this research area. Interdisciplina­ry relationships around the landscape, description and discussion of its main critical-theoretical routes, such as geocritics and geopoetics. Space, in literary writing, such as expressions of value and meanings of an imaginary, carrier of a considera­ble potential of linguistic and formal invention. Space, representations and perceptions as criteria for a scientific paradigm shift.
