About This Book

La raccolta propone saggi di viaggio che combinano descrizioni topografiche e pittoriche con ricostruzioni storiche e osservazioni etnografiche. Si alternano visite a centri antichi e siti archeologici, analisi delle rovine di Pompeii e riflessioni sul carattere dei loro abitanti, raccolte e commenti sui canti popolari siciliani, e ritratti del paesaggio e delle comunità locali. L'approccio unisce erudizione storica, sensibilità estetica e impressioni personali, tracciando un itinerario che mette in relazione la memoria del passato con le forme vive della tradizione e della vita quotidiana.
