Rifiabare: A Literary Geography Workshop
An in-person workshop on Sardinian fairy tales
Join us for an inspiring in-person workshop on Sardinian fairy tales at the University of Cambridge on 15 November 2025.
Venue: Murray Edwards College, Long Room, Huntingdon Road, Cambridge CB3 0DF (In-person only)
Workshop leaders: Maria Luisa Mura and Francesca Nardi (Ischìre – Collettivo mobile di geografia letteraria)
Organiser: Elena Sottilotta (Murray Edwards College)
What do the places we live in tell us? Who do they belong to? How do we inhabit them?
Starting from a playful reading of Fiabe Sarde [Sardinian Fairy Tales] by Sergio Atzeni and Rossana Copez, and drawing on the narrative worlds of Grazia Deledda, this multisensory workshop invites participants to build a collective space for reflection on the relationship between storytelling and the processes of territorial construction. The workshop aims to overturn some of the narrative clichés that shape the history of Sardinia and, more broadly, our way of inhabiting space and relating to the natural world.
Participation is free, but spaces are limited.
