意大利汉学家莫冉解读雪漠《女神的情书》 意大利文化媒体推出专题节目

Recently, the renowned Italian cultural and literary platform Il posto delle parole launched a special feature focusing on the Italian edition of Love Letters from the Goddess, a work by distinguished Chinese writer Xuemo. The platform invited celebrated Italian sinologist and translator Professor Riccardo Moratto to deliver an in-depth interpretation, presenting the unique spiritual charm and cultural value of Xuemo's literature to Italian readers.

Published by Biblion Edizioni and included in its "Asiatica Biblion" collection, the Italian version of Love Letters from the Goddess was fully translated and compiled by Professor Moratto. During the feature, Moratto shared his translation experience and analyzed the core ideas and artistic characteristics of the book. He pointed out that this work is far more than a story about love; it is a profound exploration of life essence, spiritual practice and inner growth. Adopting the epistolary style, Xuemo integrates reflections on love, human nature and the meaning of life into poetic language, guiding readers to break free from worldly constraints and enter a rich spiritual realm.

The special feature emphasized that Love Letters from the Goddess blends literature, philosophy and spiritual contemplation, breaking the boundaries of conventional romance fiction. Its discussions on love and freedom, soul and transcendence carry universal humanistic values beyond geographical and cultural limits. Rooted in Nepalese Buddhist culture and enriched by Indian and Chinese philosophical traditions, the work weaves mythological imagery and poetic monologues together. It explores sacrifice, devotion and impermanence with age-old Eastern wisdom, building a spiritual bridge between the sacred and the mundane.

An internationally renowned sinologist and Distinguished Professor at Tongji University, Riccardo Moratto has long been dedicated to translating and promoting Chinese literature overseas. He was awarded the title "Friend of Chinese Literature" by the Chinese Writers Association in 2025. Over the years, he has spared no effort to promote Xuemo's works in Italy. Besides translation, he has introduced Xuemo's creations and the profound culture of western China behind his writings to European audiences via academic lectures, cultural interviews and media programs. In Moratto's view, Xuemo's works are deeply rooted in the land of western China while reflecting the shared spiritual struggles of all humanity, which enables them to resonate with readers across diverse cultures.

Il posto delle parole is a highly influential Italian cultural platform committed to reporting on world literature, philosophy and ideological trends. This special feature not only promotes the Italian edition of Love Letters from the Goddess, but also demonstrates the rising recognition of Xuemo's works in mainstream European cultural circles.

To date, Xuemo's works have been translated into more than 20 languages including English, Spanish, Italian, French and German, with nearly 70 foreign editions published worldwide. The Eastern wisdom, humanistic care and spiritual pursuit embodied in his writings have won consistent admiration from overseas translators, scholars and readers. This special coverage by a mainstream Italian cultural media further proves the strong cross-lingual and cross-cultural communication power of Xuemo's works, setting a valuable example for contemporary Chinese literature to engage with Europe and promote exchanges between civilizations.

From western China to the European literary scene, Xuemo uses literature as a bond to facilitate mutual understanding and equal dialogue between different civilizations. As Professor Moratto commented, truly outstanding literature does not belong to a single country or nation, but serves as the shared spiritual heritage of all mankind.
