HUNTING STORIES AND LIVING IN THE MOUNTAINS INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION OPEN TO THE LANGUAGES OF THE ALPINE ARCH
HUNTING STORIES AND LIVING IN THE MOUNTAINS INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION OPEN TO THE LANGUAGES OF THE ALPINE ARCHCircolo Ars Venandi proposes the sixth edition of the Giacomo Rosini Award, a Literary Competition for hunting tales open to writers of all languages of the Alps. Hunting is one of the traditional activities, shared and experienced by the Alpine populations through the same experiences; in the mountains, as Mario Rigoni Stern teaches, hunters and shepherds know no boundaries and know how to communicate emotions and feelings above language barriers.
The events of women and men in the mountains, their relationship with the territory, animals and hunting are the themes on which participants are asked to express themselves in a comparison between different mother tongues. The competition, by its natural vocation, wants to be an instrument of dialogue and not of competition, although with due recognition for the most significant stories and literary talent, in fact, five short stories will be awarded on an equal footing.
The best gratification for the participants will be the publication of the winning and recommended stories in a single multilingual volume that will become the tangible testimony of an original literary event with a European dimension. The award ceremony will take place in Riva del Garda on 26 March 2011 at 18.00 pm at the Exhibition Center and the deadline for the presentation of the stories is set for 31 January 2011.
All the modalities for participation are contained in the Notice of Competition attached
