This volume focuses on the multifaceted meaning of wind and its various attributions. Wind is certainly more than an atmospheric phenomenon: the shape of its contours in words and images, its metaphoric density, its ancestral connotation forged by myths, the narrative and lyrical movements it gives life to are a constant and few examined presence, elusive yet crucial. This anthology brings together original studies on the wind displaying the crucial interconnections between the literary, artistic, aesthetic, physical, symbolic, ecological, and social dimensions. Promoting a plural discourse on narration and representation of the wind as a cross-knot between different disciplines, this collection provides a deep insight into the theme through multiple examples in modern and contemporary literature and in visual arts.
