Resum:	In this special issue, contributors explore contemporary representations of Naples and its surroundings across different fields - literature, art, architecture, film - in response to the following questions: Is Naples still considered a peripheral city in Italy? Has the city definitely lost its "armonia," as Raffaele La Capria stated in his collection of essays L'armonia perduta (1986)? How do contemporary authors depict the urban landscape and everyday life? Is the city's space only physical or also imaginary? How do characters interact with this landscape? The articles also focus on current topics in cultural studies: human interaction with urban environments, the ecocritical approach to representing cities and landscapes, the return to the real, and regional tensions in a larger national political context. This volume is distinctive in the range and diversity of its contributions which consider the city from different disciplinary perspectives. This heterogeneous approach reflects the character of a city that is constantly evolving and defies monolithic representations. The contributions engage with various archetypes of "napoletanità" to question their origins, reliability, and reach.
