La voluntad de las ovejas: la poética de la elegía pastoral en dos obras audiovisuales

Abstract

Based on two audiovisual productions, this article explores the relationship between human beings and the natural environment, focusing on the contrast between the countryside and the city as organizers of experiences. It analyzes how this dichotomy can be detected in artistic representations such as pastoral poetry, which idealizes rural life in the face of urbanity. It examines how the elegiac representation of nature addresses the loss of the locus amoenus, questioning the anthropocentric perspective and exploring new ways of understanding the relationship between humans and animals.
