En savoir plus sur le livre
This collection of articles delves into the Renaissance geographer De Boccaccio, featuring texts, indices, maps, and portulans that reflect his deep curiosity about Mediterranean peoples and cultures. His writings blend physical and human geography with literature and culture, inviting readers into a Mediterranean realm that feels more imagined than experienced. Scholarly contributions guide readers through the various historical and cultural dimensions of De Boccaccio's work. Following the groundbreaking studies of Manlio Pastore Stocchi on De Canaria, historians, geographers, and literary scholars engage in discussions about Boccaccio as a geographer. The text traces Boccaccio's intellectual and personal journeys, examining his geographical knowledge and vibrant curiosity about distant cultures. It includes a detailed index of locations and valuable maps and portolans from Italian and foreign manuscripts, exploring how Boccaccio narrates these spaces and travels. The narrative unfolds as a geographical account shaped by literary and biographical memory, highlighting places like Virgil's Naples and Dante's Lunigiana, and blending the scents and flavors of far-off lands within an imagined Mediterranean. The intersection of physical and human geography transforms these spaces into pathways of knowledge that are both geographical and cultural.
