Between Italy and Greece: letters across the Mediterranean Sea

Lecture in English by Sara Moran 

 

This lecture introduces the extraordinary Greek poet and musician Margherita Dalmati, drawing chiefly upon her correspondence with three eminent Italian writers and intellectuals of the 20th century: the poet Mario Luzi, the Germanist Leone Traverso and the literary critic Oreste Macrí. Sara Moran is the author-editor of Lettere agli amici fiorentini, published in 2017 by Firenze University Press, based on documents preserved in various Italian and Greek archives.
