The Three Cultures of the Mediterranean Foundation offers the 2nd Literary Conference "Mediterranean Letters""
Because of its geographical location and history, the Mediterranean has fostered a coexistence between cultures that has resulted in a plural identity. In it, the word becomes a unifying element and a means of expressing different realities.
This contact has given rise to a literature with an extraordinary richness and variety that deserves to be valued. In this sense, the "Mediterranean Letters" conference aims to ensure that the writing of this area is recognised in today's literary panorama, making it known through its most representative authors.
The Three Cultures of the Mediterranean Foundation believes in the integrating capacity of the word. For this reason, in the second edition of this meeting, which is once again being held in Granada, a UNESCO City of Literature, the Three Cultures of the Mediterranean Foundation wishes to promote this necessary and important space for the voices of the Mediterranean to discuss everything that shapes us, everything that we have in common.
With this aim, it has brought together such acclaimed writers as Mauricio Wiesenthal, Joumana Haddad, Philippe Claudel, Aurora Luque, Zülfü Livaneli, Gabriela Adameșteanu, Mohammed Bennis, Anne Plantagenet, Thomas Sparr and Joan Benesiu, who will participate during three intense days at the headquarters of the Euro-Arab Foundation for Higher Studies in the Nasrid capital.
