Petrarch, a 14th-century Italian writer and poet, was born under the sign of travel.
Journeying through Europe in search of ancient manuscripts,
a stationary and solitary voyage in his library in Fontaine de Vaucluse,
a journey to Rome following the traces of a lost Antiquity,
poetic and romantic reveries by the banks of the Sorgue,
or an initiatory hike to the summit of Mont Ventoux…
A series of 6 podcasts, a true sonic odyssey through books, alongside this illustrious precursor of humanism.
