Abstract(s)

This chapter examines foreign writers’ escape or holiday travel events to the Algarve (Portugal) between the 1950s and the 2010s to reflect on their experience of this destination. The authors’ biography and bibliography were analysed concerning connections to this southern European territory. The findings suggest that the presence of these writers creates literary places and adds literary meaning to the Algarvian landscape.
