i debated a little whether to post this or not considering that I'm basically a tma blog at this point but a while ago i visited Gradara, which is a little medieval village (the Italian word is borgo, saying village doesn't have the same effect) that was built around 1150 ad. Beside being extremely pretty and having a lot of swords and knights figurines, it's probably better known because it was home to a pretty well known couple: Paolo and Francesca.

So i guess in honor of Hozier's song Francesa here's a little photo dump from my trip. (Please ignore how dark the pictures are that's literally who i am unfortunately i was created by DC)

Disclaimer: I'm not a photographer, take what you can

the city entrance

the south tower

Francesca and Ciotto Malatesta's room (restored, it's not the actual one but close enough i guess)

**

The view from their window

Last but not least the chapel. Yes the acoustic is amazing and yes i sang Hozier songs in there (because i was alone and they were about to close, I didn't bother anyone)

Unfortunately most of the castle is restricted because (fortunately) it's undergoing restoration, but you can also buy a ticket for the walkway around the city walls, the one the guards did, which would have been great if I didn't suffer so much from vertigo (yeah the vast is gonna have to fight the spiders for my soul)

Oh and i almost forgot there's a "walk of the lovers" (passeggiata degli innamorati) again about Paolo and Francesca that's literally a trail of hearts

Sorry about the 2014 vibes, i do miss my youth

Gradara: mediovalmente parlando mi aggrada

CONVEGNI / Medievalismo e orientalismo: a Urbino e Gradara due "esotismi" a confronto

#CONVEGNI / #Medievalismo e #orientalismo: due "esotismi" a confronto IX edizione per il convegno   "#Medioevo fra noi" che si terrà dal 6 all'8 luglio a #Urbino e #Gradara

Il Medioevo esiste solo negli occhi dei moderni, così come l’Oriente esiste solo nello sguardo degli occidentali. I due concetti Medioevo e Oriente sono simili fra loro, perché indicano qualcosa di diverso da noi. Così, l’esotismo temporale del Medioevo immaginato come tempo delle promesse e delle origini corrisponde all’esotismo spaziale dell’Oriente immaginato come luogo di un altrove ricco di…
