The Poetics of Place
Florence Imagined

This collection of essays addresses critical and theoretical questions revolving around literary and cultural representations of Florence, Italy, in nineteenth-century European and American literature. The commonplace perception and understanding of Florence in terms confined to its glorious historical past and modern legend is examined and frequently challenged by a distinguished group of European and American literary scholars intent on rethinking the ‘myth’ of Florence.
