The Chambers of Geography. Hypotheses on Places Where Other Places are Simulated

The present study dovetails with topics previously discussed in my recent book Geografia e fiction (Tanca, 2020), with a particular focus on the link between geography and simulation. More specifically, I will reflect on places where simulations of the actual world take place. The hypothesis stems...
