dc.description.abstractIn this paper we analyze the representation of space in medieval travel books, examining the mythical, sacred and wonderful geography. First, we study the concept of space in the Middle Ages, reviewing the symbolism and perceptions that are forged with their society. Second, we analyze the mythical, sacred, and wonderful elements in the description of the geography of European travellers, considering their discourses and narrative intentions. Finally, the travellers describe the space as symbolic constructions in which real and imaginary perceptions merge. Therefore, travellers transmit geographic, historical, and religious knowledge, which is significant as an expression of their memory and cultural identity, and with which they define their representation of the world. © 2022, University of La Laguna.
