Abstract
Within the group of Spanish writers of the so-called Generation of ‘98, all interested in the landscape and its relations with national identity, Miguel de Unamuno (1864-1936) occupied a prominent place. He approached the landscape through an extensive practice of excursions, and he offered in his work valuable images, geographically solvents, with explanation and understanding, and with important metaphorical and symbolic dimensions, connected with his patriotic and national horizon. This article considers the main features of this Unamuno’s Spanish landscape vision.
