Inner seas: Notes towards a territorial phenomenology of the journey

Main Article Content

Gabriel Castillo Fadic

Abstract

Considering both etymology and mythical tradition, the possibility of the journey depends on the spatial and existential lay out of a road. This is in turn linked to the course of a river and also to the pertinence and adequacy of the fictitious world to the vehicle chosen for the journey. The article explores this three-fold relation and its potential projection on to a contemporary phenomenology of the journey associated to the space of the city of Santiago, its inner thoroughfares/ passages, and its connections with the sea.
