En savoir plus sur le livre

Exploring the intriguing choice of towers as retreats by four prominent poets and thinkers after World War I, this book delves into the cultural significance and biographical motivations behind their decisions. It connects modern turriphilia to historical towers, examining associations with spirituality, intellect, sexuality, and isolation. The narrative spans from ancient Mesopotamian ziggurats to the ivory towers of the fin de siècle, offering a rich context for understanding the symbolic meanings attached to these structures throughout history.
