Puglia, the extreme offshoot of the Italian peninsula stretching between East and West towards the Levant, breathes winds and salt, atavic beliefs, syncretic religiosity on the border of orthodoxy, atmospheres where dance and music free from the curses and poison of the taranta. With its cities founded by the Peloponnesians, its land made of white stone – a web of rare beauty and lightness embroidered like the sea surf that erodes its coast – Puglia is the ideal place to merge philosophical thought with contemplation of nature. At the Philosophy Festival in Magna Graecia we will discover the cultural and landscape attractions of the area in Copertino, Gallipoli, Lecce. And the sea: wealth and fortune of this region, privileged communication route that links the different civilizations that have given life to a meridian thought, stretched between the centre and the periphery along a border line that always opens up new horizons of research.
