Mapping Mediterranean Portugal: Pastoral and Counter-pastoral

چکیده
This article focuses on the different images of Mediterranean Portugal developed by three important Portuguese social scientists of the 20th century: the geographer Orlando Ribeiro, the ethnologist Jorge Dias and the social anthropologist José Cutileiro.
