Abstract
In this essay I use some models linked to the geocritic approach in reading texts by authors so different as Vita Sackville-West, Robert Byron, Annemarie Schwarzenbach, Nicolas Bouvier and Higino Polo dealing with their visits to Persepolis in Persia/Iran. I will consider their respective travelling and writing contexts. The texts testimony the links between the geographical space and their observers, provoking an individuation of the space, always settled between the reality itself and the subjective apprehension and the fiction linked to the writing process. The landscapes offer their margins, their resistances provoking a reaction by the traveler and writer, thus creating a new textual space. These will be read in different contexts, other literary spaces, which do not have to correspond exactly to the spaces interiorized by the authors, but created in a dialogue through texts.
