Triestebookfest "
Words on the go" aims to underline the bond that has always existed between
literature and
travel. The ideas born from this link are obviously many and range from themes concerning "classic" travel literature with authors who have explored this modality with their works, to topics that identify and describe
travel as an existential experience the journey as a fundamental existential experience for the opening, understanding and comparison with other human and social realities. Particular reflection will be dedicated to travel as a necessity in the time of migration and the human and social implications that derive from it.
It will range from literature to
journalistic reportage, from
history to
anthropology, at the same time opening up to different languages, a feature that has always distinguished the festival and will constitute natural "containers" of the travel topic and an opportunity to tell with images, sounds and words the richness and infinite possibilities of this experience that has always it is part of human life.
Particular attention will be given to the theme of travel understood as a
"slow" and conscious experience, with insights into the stories of journeys, r
espect for the environment, promotion and
enhancement of the territory.
The importance of the
inner journey that each of us carries out in our lives will also be a fundamental topic in the articulation of the meetings, together with the role of reading understood as an unparalleled possibility for traveling with the mind and living and knowing.
