Recherche-action et promotion écocentrée : expériences de refondation mémorielle et de construction territoriale à partir d’une écriture située

The aim of this contribution is to review the design and realization phases of the literary walk La battuta di caccia a Monte Mei: tra cascate, boschi e assaggi di miniera sulle tracce di Angelo Uras, developed by Maria Carmela Aru, Cosimo Frigau and the author of this essay during the summer of 2021 and inaugurated during the 36th edition of the Giuseppe Dessì Literary Prize (Villacidro, Sardinia). Based on an analysis of the research carried out in the village and the literary animation that followed, the aim is to demonstrate the analytical validity and the applicative potential of literary action-research (particularly within material ecocriticism) in a regional and peri-urban promotional context, within the broad methodological and operational horizon of parks and literary walks. Our aim is to examine the recreative and socio-territorial function of an eco-centric promotion of literature, in order to reactivate conscious ways of experiencing and re-appropriating the text with a communitarian intention, through the prism of an ecological discourse close to the narrations of the habitat.
