Summary/Abstract: This paper aims at a comparative study of a few contemporary approaches to the relation between geography and literature. The first among these is geopoetics, by K. White, which is a project based on anthropology and philosophy. The second is geocriticism, by B. Westphal, which is a comparative literary geography. The third approach is geoculturology, by W. Szczukin, linked to the Russian semiotics of culture.
