Abstract
Simbologie e scritture in transito is a collection of contributions from Italophone, Lusophone, and Hispanophone cultures comprising a variety of disciplines and different perspectives. These contributions analyze the complex human and social issue of groups and individual people on the move, broaching a topic that culture, university and academia, and writing are discussing at different levels: an evanescent world on its way out, which will always continue trying to find a way back in or return to its country of origin.
