Summary/Abstract: The South and the North – two cardinal coordinates not only of the planet Earth, but also of human civilization. South and North define a map of mental constructs, of literary references, of human condition and nature. They also define the sky and cosmogonies. A cultural journey from a northern point of reference to a southern one, whether this is Faulkner’s Mississippi, or Tasmania.
