G. A. BORGESE LITERARY PARK
The Literary Park offers a journey through the places and landscapes that not only inspired Borgese's stories, but which he inhabited and loved, where nature merges with references in his works, bringing the sights and sounds of the village once again to life.
Borgese's deep connection with the places of his childhood and the brooding mountains that loomed over his early years is palpable.
These elements nurtured his cultural and literary education, amidst his father's rich library and the austere beauty of the Sicilian landscape, becoming a source of inspiration for his works that range from fiction to criticism, reflecting a deeply reflective and meditative character.
Angelica Borgese, his daughter, describes her father as a man of deep introspection, an 'islander' who carried the silence of his native mountains deep within himself, while still displaying a volcanic and passionate nature.
As you walk through the Giuseppe Antonio Borgese Literary Park, you will discover not only the beauty of the places that shaped one of Italy's most eclectic and modern literary figures, but you will also hear the echo of his words, which vividly describe these landscapes, making every step a powerful memory and each sight a literary revelation.
