Literatură italiană

Piațete scăldate în soare și mănăstiri medievale creează scena pentru capodoperele literaturii italiene, unde enigme filosofice se împletesc cu bogate tapițerii istorice. Aceste opere se întind de la călătoriile epice ale lui Dante prin lumea de dincolo până la povestiri labirintice moderne care ne provoacă înțelegerea însăși a artei narațiunii.
