I PARCHI LETTERARI "IN THE DIMENSION OF THE JOURNEY"
- "IN THE DIMENSION OF THE JOURNEY": THE JOURNEY'S
ITINERARY
The most frequent itinerary followed by travellers
included:
Sciacca, Eraclea Minoa, Agrigento, Palma di Montechiaro
and Licata. Other stopovers have included Montallegro
and Siculiana. Therefore, this was more of a journey
that did not stray too far from the coastline; some
exceptions were visits to Caltabellotta, Favara and
Aragona.
The stops on the journeys were often similar not only
because the travellers wanted to see the same places
that had been visited by those who had been there before,
even bringing diaries along, but also because they
encountered difficulties that were associated with the
poor road conditions, dangers from brigands and problems
in finding accommodations, which were lacking almost
everywhere.
However, we have identified an itinerary that follows
the journeys that were taken by those travellers, which
connects the aforementioned places, and at the same time
highlights some other places that can be considered “hubs”,
or points of exchange and encounter where it is possible
to intertwine more than one route and more than one
suggestion.
During I Parchi Letterari® “In the Dimension of the
Journey” itinerary, we shall be accompanied by an
exceptional guide, a Storyteller, a true bridge between
the past and the present, who will allow us to relive
the pages written by the travellers from both the most
distant past and more recent times.
In I Parchi Letterari® the Storyteller allows us to move
through different dimensions of time and compare the
pages from the literature of the past with the present.
Neither the enquiring tourist nor the impassioned lover
of local literature or legends will be deluded... this
type of journey, because it is an emotional one, can be
taken by anyone, as long as the traveller is willing to
be seduced and transported to other dimensions of space
and time for a while. In the end, the “traveller” may
discover that he has actually taken a journey within
himself, finding those lost echoes, and reawakening
ancient and comforting memories.
Let the Journey Begin!....
