Description
The paper presents a recently launched project on studying the space of Slovenian literary culture from the enlightenment to the mid-twentieth century. By mapping geo-cultural data with GIS, the research will explore, how and to what degree geographical factors influenced the development and spatial distribution of Slovenian literary culture, but also, how literature, with its spatial representations, shaped the apprehension of geographical spaces and imbued them with semantics that was crucial in identity building.
