Poetry cannot be mapped, yet it thrives on maps—it consumes, devours, destroys, and subverts them. Poetry is topography in the etymological sense of the term: the writing of places. However, it is precisely this spatial ambiguity—topographical yet unmappable, filled with places yet atopic—that makes its reading so liberating, exhilarating, or comforting. This essay explores this fundamental aspect of the relationship between poetry and topography, focusing on selected works by three significant European poets: Seamus Heaney, Antonella Anedda, and Jan Wagner.

Abstract
Poetry cannot be mapped, yet it thrives on maps—it consumes, devours, destroys, and subverts them. Poetry is topography in the etymological sense of the term: the writing of places. However, it is precisely this spatial ambiguity—topographical yet unmappable, filled with places yet atopic—that makes its reading so liberating, exhilarating, or comforting. This essay explores this fundamental aspect of the relationship between poetry and topography, focusing on selected works by three significant European poets: Seamus Heaney, Antonella Anedda, and Jan Wagner.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
