viaggiatori anglofoni Mantova

Short description of contents:

The article deals with the active role played by many well and lesser known anglophone travelers to Mantua, who mostly recorded their views about the city in published journals, or studied the artistic output of its most outstanding painters (Blashfield), or were inspired by its landscape for an essay or for a play (Vernon Lee), or made it the setting of a historical novel (Edith Wharton), or lovingly evoked its silence and peace in a poem (Symons).

Note:

The article uses archival sources, illustrates new interests in tourism to Mantua, after the construction of a railway line that connected that city directly to Verona, and adds more information about it as a literary setting.
