Abstract

The aim of this work is to highlight the value of literary theory as a transversal and plural methodology, which, in close contact with other converging disciplines, allows us to study literature in greater depth as a discourse in which cultural landscapes are constructed and interpreted. In order to do so it is necessary to consider a perspective that combines, from a theoretical point of view, the elements that make up artistic discourse −in this specific case, the literary discourse− with the explanation and specification of its cultural components. The close connection traditionally established between rhetorical and poetic studies creates an exceptional framework for tackling lines of research on cultural landscapes that have so far been neglected since they go beyond the scope of literary studies.
