Romantic Naples. Literary Images from Italian and European Travellers in the Early Nineteenth Century

No ratings yet

"This book is not a story of the journey to Naples in the early nineteenth century, nor an anthology of works on Naples, and not even a history of the literature produced in Naples. Rather by drawing on all these fields of investigation it presents itself as an introduction to the Romantic imagery of the Neopolitan Province, Naples as the ideal place, invented and articulated in the land of writing in a dense multiplicity of forms."--back cover.
