Now in its 28th edition, Mantua Festivaletteratura is the Italian longest-running literary festival, attracting around 60,000 visitors each year. From September 4th to 8th, the city will host more than three hundred Italian and international authors, engaging attendees in meetings, workshops, horizontal lessons, and creative labs. The festival will thus become a special moment of dialogue, exchange, and sharing of thoughts. The event will be specifically dedicated to exploring relations: relations between people, between tradition and innovation, between parents and children, and between humans and the natural environment.
Panguaneta joins the reflection on new ways of coexisting between humans and nature by supporting the event “JOURNEY IN OUR HOME, THE EARTH” with Paolo Pecere, scheduled for Sunday, September 8th at 3:00 PM at the Palatine Basilica of Santa Barbara. Pecere, a historian of philosophy highly appreciated by the audience of Festivaletteratura, will dialogue with the writer Claudia Durastanti about the indissoluble bond between humans and nature, aiming to define a new approach to the natural world based on the balance among all its elements. This theme is addressed in his latest book, “Il senso della natura. Sette sentieri per la Terra”, published by Sellerio.
Additionally, in the city centre, you will be invited to discover the four “Libropanche” (Book Benches), elegant book-crossing stations inspired by the literary world and specially created by Panguaneta to contribute to the festival's atmosphere, engaging and stimulating visitors.
