Incroci di civiltà, undici anni di letteratura a Venezia: 2008-18

Abstract

This contribution presents Incroci di civiltà (Crossings of Civilisations), Venice International Literary Festival. Specifically, it traces its birth within the former Faculty of Foreign Languages and Literatures, its development in the two Linguistic Departments of the University, and the many Venetian collaborations that have made it recognisably unique in the Italian cultural landscape because of its thematic focus and engagement with crucial issues of our present-tense world.
