.How have Africa and Middle East been approached, imagined, and described by travelers, writers and film directors coming from different countries? This course will explore the idea of Africa and Middle East that was invented in the West, widely circulated beyond the borders of its production, and is somehow still present and influential in our contemporary world. Analysis will be carried on a corpus of literary texts by Pasolini, Moravia, Flaubert etc., within the theoretical-methodological framework of comparative literature.
