Summary The Mediterranean is a multifaceted conglomeration of parts that cannot be assembled into a whole. Its various histories characterized by imperial and nationalistic aspirations, imbalances of power and economies, political struggles, diverse cultural, religious and linguistic realities as well as the countless myths spawned by people over the ages all contribute to the world's fascination with this region and simultaneously make it difficult for anyone to speak sensibly about it without resorting to the plural form - the Mediterraneans. So, can we speak of a Mediterranean pedagogy of the arts?
