    Abstract: On the one hand le côté de Guermantes and on the other that of chez Swann... Few places like Illiers-Combray offer the tangible measure of a myth that has involved not only readers and writers, but also those who have reflected on the meaning and structures of modern fiction. As the great criticism of the 20th century and the most innovative reflections on the method would not be conceivable without the Recherche. Auerbach, Curtius, Spitzer, Poulet, Jauss, Deleuze, Richard, Genette, Barthes..., as well as Solmi, Debenedetti, Contini, and Macchia in Italy, measured themselves with essays and/or memorable books, while Caproni, Fortini, Ginzsburg, Raboni... tried themselves with translation. In short, the seduction of a work with a very dense intertextuality and variety of registers still resides, not only in the ability to talk about the history and culture of the West, offering the grandiose fresco of a universe in decline, but in the possibility of inserting itself on many levels (including that of meta-literature, non-fiction) as an obligatory point of passage. Thus contributing to create a world parallel to the real one, which is now populated by its doubles: cities, cathedrals, feelings, emotions, words intermittences... From the field of fiction to that, induced, of narratology, no doubt that Proust has changed our life, the perception of the world, and the way of looking at objects, and of reading books and things. The collection that is proposed here, designed and curated by Anna Dolfi, gives a broad and evocative testimony, offering itself as an essential object of study on the traces of the unforgettable, unseizable Marcel

    Abstract: The overbearing affirmation of the body, with its instincts and impulses, and an effort aimed at suppressing that same push: this powerful dialectic deeply marks Beckett's works, and becomes a crucial reflection of the more general tension between a vain waiting for the end and the need to move forward. The close investigation of the texts suggests a special link with the thought of Arthur Schopenhauer, revealing in particular the contiguity between the concept of Noluntas and the search, by many of Beckett's characters, for "will-lessness", a peculiar state of quiet and abstraction from reality. Starting from these observations, this study investigates the theme of the body within Beckett's poetics, especially in light of his relationship with the Schopenhauer's Will theory

    Abstract: As scattered pieces of a composite artistic path to be reassembled, the personal notes, writing tests, private letters and reviews kept by Giuseppe Dessí over the years allow Nicola Turi, who had already been following the author's footsteps for some time, to reconstruct the sources of inspiration, the composition and revision processes, as well as the main stages of the critical reception of a work crossing the best part of the 20th century in Italy with an elegant gait which constantly brings it in on the same level as the great European models: a philosophical background which is always up to date, and the very fine sensitivity of someone who knows how to grasp the imperceptible movements of the human soul and the great changes of history at the same time. This volume is the result of a long archival work and, also by virtue of the bibliography (by and on the author) placed in the appendix, it aims at functioning as a journey through Dessí's texts and, at the same time, at offering the readers the necessary hermeneutical support to understand his works

    Abstract: À rebours des thèses structuralistes, ce livre affirme que la littérature parle du monde. Il y a du hors-texte. Cette étude de quatre œuvres marquantes d'auteurs emblématiques du mouvement postmoderne apporte une contribution importante à la géocritique et aux théories de l'espace qui fleurissent aujourd'hui dans le domaine de la littérature générale et comparée. Le monde, balisé par les lignes imaginaires des géographes et des navigateurs, est sillonné par les migrants, les voyageurs et les armées en campagne. Les frontières quant à elles sont des lignes qui ancrent une identité dans le territoire, et ce sont bien souvent des obstacles infranchissables. L'approche géocritique met en évidence la crise de ces notions dans les descriptions de villes utopiques des Città invisibili d'Italo Calvino, dans la course folle de l'héroïne des Grandes Blondes, de Jean Echenoz, dans les espaces subjonctifs de la Zone que parcourent les personnages de Gravity's Rainbow, de Thomas Pynchon, et dans les déserts rocheux du grand roman d'après-guerre de Christoph Ransmayr, Morbus Kitahara. Une fois résolue la très ancienne question de la représentation mimétique qui se trouverait au fondement de toute œuvre d'art, on peut faire émerger l'idée que dans la fiction récente, les configurations spatiales participent à l'intrigue de façon déterminante. Au-delà de la nostalgie postmoderne pour un monde vaste, qui recèlerait encore une part d'inconnu et serait favorable à tous nos désirs, ces œuvres instaurent une nouvelle relation à l'espace. Conçu comme un ensemble rhizomatique de milieux et de flux connectés entre eux, le monde entretient avec la littérature des rapports dont les textes du corpus, dans leur variété, permettent de saisir la cohérence

    Abstract: « La poésie n'invente pas un autre monde mais transforme le rapport qu'on a avec celui-ci », affirme Henri Meschonnic en soulignant à quel point le langage poétique - qu'il soit en vers ou en prose - permet d'exprimer notre condition entre un ici et un Ailleurs, entre moi et l'Autre. Un parcours critique et stylistique de la poésie romane méridionale propose dans cet ouvrage une vingtaine de contributions scientifiques pour définir comment le langage poétique, au fil du temps, a contribué à créer l'Ailleurs et ses images. Découverte et voyage, dialectique entre le proche et le lointain, étrangeté du langage, aventures linguistiques, poétiques totalisantes fondées sur l'Ailleurs, conscience de l'invisible ou du différent : telles sont les principales approches proposées par les études réunies qui couvrent les domaines de la littérature ibérique en castillan, en catalan et en portugais, de la littérature italienne en italien et en dialecte, de la littérature d'Amérique centrale et de deux aspects de la poésie française (la poésie de 'l'amour de loin' et la reprise de traditions romanes par Aragon). Les auteurs de l'ouvrage ont analysé les formes d'expression de l'Ailleurs en poésie pour trouver, des troubadours occitans jusqu'à notre époque, une volonté commune de découvrir ce que Jules Supervielle a nommé le « paysage humain »

    Abstract: In un frammento pubblicato il 10 dicembre 1810 nei suoi «Berliner Abendblätter», Heinrich von Kleist sosteneva che "gli uomini si potrebbero dividere in due categorie: quelli che si intendono di metafore e quelli che si intendono di formule". A due secoli di distanza, questo volume prende a prestito la coppia kleistiana "formula e metafora" per indagare le sorti dello scienziato come personaggio nelle letterature e culture di una contemporaneità intesa nel senso più ampio possibile. Lo scienziato - benefattore o criminale, saggio o irresponsabile, opportunista o pazzo, freddo calcolatore o debole strumento del potere, personaggio comico o tragico, drammatico o grottesco - è uno dei protagonisti della cultura contemporanea. Che si tratti di personalità storiche o di figure d'invenzione, alimentate da prototipi letterari e da stereotipi di varia matrice, uomini di scienza popolano le più varie opere di finzione da fine Ottocento a oggi: il volume ne indaga ventisei esempi, spaziando fra letteratura, teatro e cinema nei mondi di lingua francese, inglese, italiana, polacca, russa, spagnola, svedese e tedesca. Le molteplici declinazioni del personaggio-scienziato sono lo specchio più o meno deformato di eventi e problemi che hanno alimentato l'inesausto interrogarsi dell'intellettuale moderno sul rapporto fra scienza, arte e società. Al contempo, esse rivelano nelle loro radici il perdurare di antiche e moderne figurazioni mitologico-letterarie, trasformate da scrittori e artisti per interpretare consapevolmente il passato e il presente

Zum ersten Mal werden in diesem Buch Rahmenbedingungen und Gestaltungselemente des Luxemburger Werbediskurses umfassend diskutiert und analysiert. Ausgehend von Jürgen Links Interdiskurs- und Normalismustheorie gibt die Untersuchung wichtige Hinweise auf die grundsätzliche Beziehung zwischen Werbung, Multikulturalität und kollektiven Identitäten und bietet so eine innovative Form der Anwendung literaturwissenschaftlicher Theorien auf kommunikationswissenschaftliche Kontexte

    Abstract: This collection of studies is dedicated to Cesare G. De Michelis for his seventy years. It contains contributions by friends and students wishing to recall his teaching and research, together with the variety and breadth of his interests. This explains the heterogeneity of the contributions, which focus primarily on Russian literature but also extend to other Slavic literatures, and then to Russian religious and secular history, to cultural relations between Italy and Russia and to some pages of the modern anti-Semitism. The volume opens drawing a profile and the bibliography of professor De Michelis, including his vast scientific production and a dense list of publicity contributions in which the rigour of the scholar and his civil passion are reflected

    Abstract: Médiation entre l’individu et la société, la famille apparaît comme un facteur essentiel tant dans la construction des égos que dans l’élaboration de l’ordre collectif. En un XIXe siècle où se modifient les normes et les pratiques de l’institution, le roman explore les règles, les enjeux, les dessous de cartes de celle-ci, et, misant sur la dynamique de la mêmeté et de l’altérité qui assure le renouvellement domestique et généalogique, en fait jouer les possibles. Le Jeu des familles se penche d’abord, avec Balzac puis Paul Bourget, sur les nostalgies patriarcales, qui exaltent les valeurs de la filiation et de la transmission, vecteurs de la mêmeté. Il se tourne ensuite, avec Balzac, les Goncourt et Zola, vers les atouts et les handicaps du familialisme bourgeois moderne, qui privilégie les préférences individuelles et l’alliance, point d’insertion de l’« autre ». Il examine l’utopie d’une rédemption fraternitaire proposée par George Sand et Eugène Sue, qui rêvent de faire de la famille la matrice de la cohabitation des classes et de la réconciliation des sexes. Il suit enfin, chez Edmond de Goncourt, Barbey d’Aurevilly et Elémir Bourges, la décadence des lignages et des maisonnées fin de siècle, dans lesquelles se brouillent délibérément les cartes. Convoquant de nombreux textes, fictionnels et non fictionnels, cet essai montre comment le roman répercute, repense, reconfigure l’institution, et participe ainsi à sa redéfinition

    Abstract: Loosely based on Primo Levi's The Periodic Table, the play has a Fahrenheit 451 setting. In a world without books or memory appears a common man, the Man in the street, with some heets of writing that he cannot make out. With the help of the narrator, Science, Technology and Nature, and of two actors who remain offstage for a long while - Primo and his friend Alberto - this man is able to reconstruct the events of the chapter entitled Cerium. In this way, and thanks to this act of remembrance, lost identity - our history - is recreated. Science, Technology and Nature free this man without memory from his state of not-knowing, by giving him scientific knowledge and understanding. The play finds its catharsis in a deeply moving passage, inspired by the chapter Carbon, which creates an atemporal connection between a carbon atom from the smoke of a crematorium chimney and one residing in the body of any one of us: a poetic parable of a science firmly anchored in the life and history of man

    Abstract: Letture anticanoniche biofiction, dentro e fuori la metafinzione, aims at offering multiple interpretations to biofictions. For the critical analysis of these pieces, identified so far with a 'symptomatic' examination of various fictional texts on a given historical period or person, some possible non-canonical directions have been proposed: a 'horizontal' method, which brings biofiction into the 'fictional galaxy' of a writing subject (as in the case of Michèle Roberts), and then a 'vertical' method, which explores a model-biofiction to deconstruct and then reconstruct the intertwining of the synchronic and diachronic voices of its singular modus operandi. The final part of the volume is dedicated to Mab's Daughters by Judith Chernaik, an extremely interesting case of biofiction 'with possible worlds'.

    Abstract: Empire Girls: the colonial heroine comes of age is a critical examination of three novels by writers from different regions of the British Empire: Olive Schreiner’s The Story of An African Farm (South Africa), Sara Jeannette Duncan’s A Daughter of Today (Canada) and Henry Handel Richardson’s The Getting of Wisdom (Australia). All three novels commence as conventional Bildungsromane, yet the plots of all diverge from the usual narrative structure, as a result of both their colonial origins and the clash between their aspirational heroines and the plots available to them. In an analysis including gender, empire, nation and race, Empire Girls provides new critical perspectives on the ways in which this dominant narrative form performs very differently when taken out of its metropolitan setting

    Abstract: « Appelons romantique Hugo et la discussion est close » écrivait Giraudoux. Pourtant, en revenant sur l’idée de romantisme dont il faut signaler que, dès l’apparition du terme, elle a paru, à la fois, vague et indispensable, dangereuse et vide, énorme et pourtant infiniment dépassée ; en revenant sur ses réévaluations qui embrassent non seulement le domaine de la littérature mais aussi toute la sphère sociale (de la politique à la mode) et tout l’éventail des effets (de la passion à la haine), c’est le champ du littéraire dans son ensemble que ce livre engage. C’est en effet l’idée même de littérature que le romantisme prétend avoir ouvert, au point de se confondre avec elle. L’histoire de cette idée, de sa construction, entre incertitudes, dénégations et particularismes, tel est l’objet de ce livre, organisé en quatre parties comprises comme autant de modèles d’un rapport à la mémoire, de ses résistances, de sa permanence : figures et fictions, rémanences, résiliences et histoire d’autorités. Les travaux réunis ici montrent indiscutablement que nous sommes toujours sous le régime, romantique, du sujet et que la discussion est loin d’être close

    Abstract: Tyrus Miller's book offers readers a focused introduction to the Frankfurt School's important attempts to relate the social, political, and philosophical conditions of modernity to innovations in twentieth-century art, literature, and culture. The book pursues this interaction of modernity and modernist aesthetics in a two-sided, dialectical approach. Not only, Miller suggests, can the Frankfurt School's penetrating critical analyses of the phenomena of modernity help us develop more nuanced, historically informed and contextually sensitive analyses of modernist culture; but also, modernist culture provides a field of problems, examples, and practices that intimately affected the formation of the Frankfurt School's theoretical ideas.The individual chapters, which include detailed discussions of Walter Benjamin, Theodor Adorno, Herbert Marcuse as well as a survey of later Frankfurt School influenced thinkers, discuss the ideas of a given figure with an emphasis on particular artistic media or contexts: Benjamin with lyric poetry and architecture as urban art forms; Adorno with music; Marcuse with the liberationist art performances and happenings of the 1960s

    Abstract: L'implication du corps dans la création artistique ne fait guère de doute : il constitue la quatrième dimension de l'arrière-texte, la plus secrète. Il en va de cette entité fuyante, proche et insaisissable, comme du temps selon saint Augustin : on croit savoir ce dont il s’agit, mais si on y réfléchit un peu, tout se brouille. Cet en-deçà du langage, culturellement (re)construit, fonctionne dans la langue comme un signe articulé à un référent barré, inaccessible. Encodant symboliquement la trace refoulée de pulsions ou hantée par la présence de cet innommable, la langue littéraire joue néanmoins le double jeu d’inscrire et d’ex-crire le corps, selon le mot d’Antonin Artaud

    Abstract: The volume contains articles concerning the influence of Latinitas in the territory now occupied by Poland, Lithuania, Ukraine and Belarus'. The articles, all published in English, range from history to literature and to cultural history and the history of ideas. They analyze the issue of building an identity, either real or imagined, from different points of view. Among the most interesting topics are the classical origins of myths and ideas that have helped build the national identities of those that constituted the ethnic mosaic of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the role of Neo-Latin poetry, as a conveyor of Latinitas, in the development of national identities. Because of the significance of Latinitas for both common European cultural traditions and the national cultures, literatures and languages of Belarus, Poland, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia and Ukraine, it is to be hoped that the subject will continue to attract a good level of attention in the future

    Abstract: Benjamin G. Kohl (1938-2010) taught at Vassar College from 1966 till his retirement as Andrew W. Mellon Professor of the Humanities in 2001. His doctoral research at The Johns Hopkins University was directed by Frederic C. Lane, and his principal historical interests focused on northern Italy during the Renaissance, especially on Padua and Venice. His scholarly production includes the volumes Padua under the Carrara, 1318-1405 (1998), and Culture and Politics in Early Renaissance Padua (2001), and the online database The Rulers of Venice, 1332-1524 (2009). The database is eloquent testimony of his priority attention to historical sources and to their accessibility, and also of his enthusiasm for collaboration and sharing among scholars

    Abstract: The essays published here document the most recent linguistic research carried out in the field of Italian Slavistics. The contributions collected in the first part of the volume analyze the morphological and syntactic structures of various Slavic languages; the second part is dedicated to linguistic use; the last contains three experimental studies on the acquisition of Slavic languages, a particularly promising research area both for glottodidactic applications and for the contribution to studies on the relationship between thought and language. There are several Slavic languages studied (Czech, Polish, Russian, Slovenian, Ukrainian dialects, southern Slavic languages, including the spoken languages of the Pomaks in the Rhodope mountains), different perspectives (diachronic and synchronic) and various methodological approaches, testifying to the richness and progressive maturation of linguistic studies within Italian Slavistics

    Abstract: The Italian contributions to the XIII International Congress of Slavists (Ljubljana, 15-21 August 2003) had a very limited circulation between the participants in the congress and the restricted circle of experts. Considering the high scientific value of the individual contributions, to which we continue to refer in the framework of Slavic literature, it was decided to publish these acts in the series "Library of Slavic Studies" also to celebrate the ten years of its existence. Faced with a consolidated tradition of studies in the philological and literary field, Italian Slavistics of the beginning of the millennium found itself facing new needs. On the one hand, a new generation of linguists has established themselves, who have developed a series of innovative research on Slavic languages, especially in the contrastive field. On the other hand, new research paths have developed in contemporary literature, especially in relation to the most recent historical circumstances which have seen profound cultural transformations in the Slavic countries themselves, with the need to reconstruct consolidated literary canons also on the basis of the literature of emigration. The same philological research has been able to question itself again on its role by taking up in a different form traditional issues such as the Cyril-Methodian question, the problem of biblical citations or the debate on the Latin Slavia and the Orthodox Slavia, as well as the more traditional ecdotic issues manifesting a new sensitivity starting from religious issues. Alberto Alberti is researcher in Slavistics at the University of Bologna

    Abstract: Margherita Guidacci's correspondence with Tiziano Minarelli is filled with memories and poetic occasions, and it allows us to shed light on the genesis of her latest poetic collections (from Inno alla gioia in 1983 to Anelli del tempo in 1993), to gather new sources of inspiration and to reconstruct the emotional and cultural background accompanying the writing of the letters. This correspondence encourages reflections on the Italian literary scene, as seen from the point of view of those who, like Margherita Guidacci, contributed to it by combining poetic activity (in Italian), translation (of a a third language as well), study and teaching of the English and American literature, and cultural journalism. It testifies to an intense friendship, a common passion for literature and reading, a constant sharing of poetic texts through transcriptions and quotations, and a growing familiarity

    Abstract: Au tournant du XXe siècle, l'Indochine est dotée par la France de trois Théâtres municipaux inaugurés à Saigon, à Hanoi et à Haiphong, hauts lieux de la culture française. Cette découverte du théâtre occidental parlé entraîne au Vietnam de profonds bouleversements dans la création traditionnelle. La première traduction en écriture romanisée quốc ngữ d'une pièce française, Le Malade imaginaire de Molière, marque un tournant historique et donne naissance en 1921 à la première pièce de théâtre parlé vietnamien, La Tasse de poison, par Vũ Đình Long. Les intellectuels vietnamiens voient dans le théâtre en quốc ngữ, langue dont le développement est encouragé par le colonisateur, un moyen de s'émanciper de l'héritage chinois et de s'affirmer face à la domination coloniale. Cet ouvrage, dont le fil directeur montre comment paradoxalement l'assimilation de la culture du colonisateur contribue à la fondation d'un État indépendant et moderne, envisage les trois volets de la réception du théâtre français par le biais de la presse et des revues, de sa traduction et de son adaptation, enfin des pratiques théâtrales croisées jusqu'à nos jours. Celles-ci ont donné lieu à une création métissée où les deux traditions théâtrales, dans leur respect mutuel, s'enrichissent de leur contact séculaire, tant sur le sol français qu'au Vietnam

    Abstract: Les rapports entre l'architecture et la littérature sont complexes. Pour sortir de la traditionnelle comparaison entre objets architecturaux et littéraires, il importe d'analyser les interactions entre ces deux domaines. Architectes, historiens de l'architecture et spécialistes de la littérature se sont interrogés sur leurs interférences, au cours de la décade organisée au Centre culturel international de Cerisy-La-Salle en septembre 2009. L'histoire des xxeet xxie siècles offre de nombreux exemples de l'utilisation de la littérature par les architectes dans l'ordre de la narration, de la fiction théorique, dans l'élaboration de leurs projets iconographiques et dans leur concrétisation. Le Corbusier, Guiseppe Terragni, Frank Lloyd Wright, Louis I. Kahn, Daniel Liebeskind, Frank Gehry, Peter Eisenman... permettent de croiser l'étude des différentes formes de l'expression de la pensée architecturale, la réflexion théorique sur les objets architecturaux et l'analyse de leur réception. La littérature ne convoque pas simplement l'architecture comme une analogie structurelle ou un motif. Les œuvres de Louis Aragon, André Gide, Michel Butor, Julien Gracq, Edmond Jabès, Georges Perec, Olivier Rolin, Benoît Duteurtre, Philippe Vasset... offrent l'occasion de s'interroger sur le sens de leurs rapports et sur les complémentarités entre l'écriture, l'architecture et l'espace

    Abstract: Musica, scienziato!, a work that cannot be reduced to pre-existing models, establishes a new literary genre, the scientifantasia, which, although part of a literary tradition which has included eminent figures such as the acrobatic engineer Gadda and the chemist Levi, is here presented in a totally new physiognomy. The scientist-writer, Narrator of the monologues, becomes a musical storyteller that makes up stories through the languages of his time, and the 'scientific word' ends up "exorcising the evil of history and the weight of existence" in order to soften and redeem them, placing them within the range of knowledge and expression without which, quoting the Shakespearean lines recited at the end of Revealing Ravel, man is "fit for treasons, stratagems, and spoils. / The motions of his spirit are dull as night, / and his affections dark as Erebus".

    Abstract: Vulcano, Sicily 1964. After a meeting with him in Cortona, Helle Busacca, a poet and writer from Messina, began drafting an epistolary diary dedicated to Corrado Pavolini, a well-known intellectual and film director of Tuscan origins with whom she had been in love for over twenty years. Through the so far unpublished pages she dedicated to "una storia senza storia" ("a story without history"), the writer brings to life an incandescent theatre of the self, in which the dramatization of personal experience, the self-representative elaboration and the expression of a living and restless inner self combine in a mixture of strongly hybrid characters, which is conveyed by a disruptive communicative force. As the desperately pursued interlocutor becomes increasingly evanescent and unreachable, the voice of a modern tragic heroine emerges unmistakably between claim and confession

    Abstract: The royal monastery of San Salvatore on Mount Amiata, which, according to tradition, was founded in the 8th century by the will of the Lombard kings near the papal lands, has been the focus of numerous researches in recent decades dedicated not only to some famous codices preserved for centuries in his library, but also to the documentary writings handed down in the Diplomatico, which collects documentation from the mid-eighth century. In this volume, the paleographic and diplomatic interpretation of the writings elaborated by the abbots and the Amiata monks intertwines with the reconstruction of the practices of power management, both in its local dimension and in that of relations with popes and emperors

    Abstract: The volume collects the contributions of the 'study day' held on June 16, 2010 at the University of Florence on Abbeys and medieval landscapes in Tuscany, that is, on the forms of the territory that have structured the ways of life in the countryside of our region for centuries. Today an infatuation is observed for that kind of landscape, which is confirmed by a lack of interest for its conservation or for transformations respectful of the rules that produced it. It is therefore appropriate to submit to the historic method a synthetic view of the medieval landscape, from the ancient premises to the economic reasons that led to the monastic and feudal forms, up to the appearance of a new structure appreciated for its useful beauty, in a persistent substratum of mysterious storytelling. Tuscany allows multiple evidence of what actually survives of the pervasive order established in the Middle Ages also for its exemplary literary and iconographic representations, both contemporary and of the medieval times

    Abstract: Starting from the main theories about the imaginary - from the Freudian category of Unheimliche and the Todorovian category of hésitation up to the most recent contributions - the volume highlights the imaginary elements of instability in Flann O'Brien's narrative. In particular, the author analyses the discontinuities and irreconcilable contradictions of the Irish writer's textual systems, the idiosyncratic and fragmented representation of the characters, the ambiguous coexistence of natural and supernatural, the problematic relationship between signifier and signified. Malapropisms, neologisms, linguistic tics, nonsense and a series of meta-narrative games seem to compromise the search for reliable answers within the Obrienian cosmos in which truth is, in fact, an odd number

    Abstract: Carlo Marsuppini (1398-1453) is a well known professor at the Studio Fiorentino, Chancellor of the Republic, friend of Cosimo de' Medici and tutor of his children, translator of Homeric and pseudo-homeric works, author of private and, above all, public letters. His activity as a poet is less known: his writings in vernacular were so far entrusted to a handful of poems published in the collection Carmina illustrium poetarum italorum (1720). This book offers for the first time a rigorous critical edition of the humanist's poetic production, based on the analysis of the vast vast known manuscript tradition, and a broad commentary on the individual poems, of which a translation into Italian is also offered

    Abstract: Wackenroder's conception of music is strongly influenced by the musical thought of the composer Johann Friedrich Reichardt, who was a romantic music teacher, friend and mentor of Wackenroder, whom he introduced to the 'realm of sounds'. Reichardt was the author of numerous essays on music and of the unique Musikerroman from the Enlightenment period (Leben des berühmten Tonkünstlers Heinrich Wilhelm Gulden nachher genannt Guglielmo Enrico Fiorino, 1779). Wackenroder e Reichardt: musica e letteratura nel primo Romanticismo tedesco ("Wackenroder and Reichardt: music and literature in the first German Romanticism") compares the literary works of the two authors and investigates the results of their influence. The work retraces the transition from the conception of music during the Enlightenment, linked to the social function of art, to the idea of an 'absolute' music of the Romantic era, determining the artist's problematic existence

    Abstract: Eleven companies cofounded the 100,000 Jobs Mission in 2011 to promote veteran employment. The coalition has grown to more than 175 member companies, representing almost every U.S. industry. These companies have hired more than 190,000 veterans as of September 2014, already far exceeding the original goal. RAND interviewed member companies to capture lessons and experiences and to identify further improvements to veteran employment opportunities

    Abstract: This volume contains Italian contributions to the XV Slavists' International Congress (Minsk, 20-27 August 2013). In the wake of the best Italian Slavic tradition, the lecturers present a wide range of themes in different languages, ranging from the Cyril-Methodian question to the critical reflection on contemporary authors. Despite the diversity of disciplinary and methodological approaches - from paleography to textual analysis, from literary comparative studies to sociolinguistics - these contributions show that Italian Slavistic studies maintains their roots, critically developing previous studies and opening up new perspectives for research, while a new generation of scholars is born. As in the past, Italian studies on Slavistics are playing a significant role not only in Italy's cultural relations with the Slavic countries, but more generally on the perspective of a vast and complex process of integration of the various European cultures, which goes further beyond the borders of the European Union; a process in which the Slavic world, with its variety of languages and cultures, is one of the main actors

    Abstract: This study deals with the first works by Don DeLillo, from Americana (1971) to Running Dog (1978), but it also extends its investigation horizon to his following works. The work deals specifically with the conception of time, and the way it is represented in the texts of the American author. By integrating the philosophy of time with narratology, the volume offers critical reflections aimed at identifying the type of poetics through which DeLillo articulates time in his work. In particular, the centrality of the perception of time in his novels and, more specifically, the concentration of the plots in certain moments, the oblique presence of the influence of Samuel Beckett's work in the representation of duration and the attention of the author to the double temporality of the cinematographic image and its hidden aesthetic potential are highlighted. Therefore, time becomes the conceptual context in which the textures of these texts, and the themes characterising them, find a resolution. In the representation of time, in the microscopic analysis and in the slow motion of some specific time segments, DeLillo's narrative traces the possibilities of an indefinable and mysterious perception of reality and history

    Abstract: The objective of this work is to investigate the meaning of myth in the work of Yvan Goll (1891-1950), a Franco-German, bilingual and Jewish poet. In his poems, characters of the classical tradition alternate with biblical and historical figures: among all stands out the topic of the myth of Europe, understood as a geographical space and universal homeland for all those who, born in a borderland like Goll, feel "heimatlos", that is stateless. The aim of the thesis is to demonstrate how the artist's dialogue with the myth follows precise and constant rules with a clear goal: to send a strong message to the contemporary world. Taking into consideration the works dedicated to the mythical heritage, it is observed how after the Mythisierung (mythisation) of the old continent, the author deconstructs his own creation through a systematic Entmythisierung (demythisation)

    Abstract: Quelle contemporanéité singulière chercher chez Rohmer, dont l'œuvre théorique, télévisuelle et filmique dialogue ouvertement ou secrètement avec Chrétien de Troyes, Blaise Pascal et Honoré d'Urfé autant qu'avec Proust, Hitchcock, Antonioni, Godard et Ricardo Bofill ? À sa disparition en 2010, on a tout naturellement, en France et à l'étranger, salué en l'auteur de La Collectionneuse, de Ma nuit chez Maud, du Genou de Claire et de Pauline à la plage, le Marivaux ou le « moraliste du septième art », le « Master of tact », « le cinéaste littéraire par excellence ». Réunissant, autour d'une commune attraction, des spécialistes de la littérature française et du cinéma, ce Rohmer en perspectives propose d'aborder le cinéaste à travers le prisme d'une contemporanéité complexe et contradictoire où l'héritage humaniste et la quête de beauté, de vérité et d'ordre s'ouvrent, non sans ambiguïté, aux intrusions, empêchements, déséquilibres et désordres du vivant. Entre le celluloïd, le polaroïd et le marbre, se dessine ici le portrait de Rohmer en contemporain inactuel qui, du Signe du lion aux Amours d'Astrée et de Céladon, n'a cessé d'exposer le classicisme français aux rayons de la modernité et de l'historicité cinématographiques

    Abstract: Ce volume étudie les représentations romantiques de la forêt au xixe entre romantisme et positivisme mais aussi entre romantisme et décadentisme autour de plusieurs pistes et questions. Il s'attache à dégager à travers tout le xixe les continuités, les ruptures, les modulations, les détournements voire les retournements. La forêt est un espace sauvage certes ; mais en même temps elle est un paysage en perpétuelle évolution : elle n'échappe pas à l'économie. Les écrivains, Balzac et Sand, par exemple, enregistreront ces mutations. La forêt se sépare en deux espaces : celui des cultures (de la culture), celui de la nature. Le couple est sans cesse interrogé dans ce volume. L'attachement romantique à la forêt n'est pas seulement l'expression d'une nostalgie. Il est également porteur des embryons d'une pensée que nous qualifierions aujourd'hui « d'écologiste ». Ce livre, qui regroupe une vingtaine de contributions, part de l'évidence romantique apparente selon laquelle le moi est lié à la forêt. La force de cette relation privilégiée est ensuite examinée, qui s'explique aussi bien par les enchantements que par les chants offerts par et dans la forêt. Examiner ensuite comment la réalité sylvestre, celle de Fontainebleau, en particulier, qui a conquis de grands écrivains de l'époque, hante et nourrit tout à la fois l'imaginaire fantasmatique, permet d'aborder pour finir la forêt dans sa dimension iconographique. Le livre se clôt sur un magnifique portfolio photographique

    Abstract: La question de la censure, de ses modalités et de ses effets, semble inépuisable, et toutes les formes d'expression, que ce soit des textes (poésie, théâtre, roman, presse...) ou des images (peinture, photographie, cinéma...) sont susceptibles d'être à un moment ou à un autre les victimes de mesures censoriales plus ou moins sévères. Ce livre envisage les cas de l'Espagne, du Portugal et de divers pays d'Amérique Latine (Argentine et Uruguay) autour de trois thématiques : les pouvoirs et les censures de l'Ancien Régime au xxe siècle ; les dictatures face aux productions littéraires et cinématographiques : franquisme, salazarisme, dictatures latino-américaines ; langue et littérature : autocensures, oublis, manipulations. La question des stratégies à adopter face à la censure est au cœur de ce volume. Comment contourner la censure, s'y adapter et faire avec, comment pouvoir donc communiquer avec son public plus ou moins « librement » ? Les pratiques peuvent être variées et dépendre des situations concrètes, qu'il s'agisse de déplacement physique, de choix d'une autre langue ou d'effacement de repères concrets pouvant permettre de remonter jusqu'aux imprimeurs et auteurs de publications dont le contenu « hétérodoxe » peut faire l'objet de répression, en passant par l'autocensure, le jeu du possible qui peut permettre de faire naître des espaces de transgression. Brutale, souvent arbitraire, aveugle et polymorphe, la censure et ses agents sont rarement intelligents. La ruse, et donc la métaphore ou l'ellipse, devient alors une pratique obligatoire pour tenter de tromper les censeurs

    Abstract: L'ennui est une notion clé dans la littérature de la deuxième moitié du xixe siècle, ce qui ne veut pas dire qu'il ne faille pas chercher l'expression de l'ennui avant ou après cette période. Si le passage de la mélancolie romantique à l'ennui fin de siècle représente en effet une évolution historique essentielle pour la compréhension de l'ennui au xixe siècle, il nous a semblé aussi important d'étudier dans ce livre l'ennui en dehors de ce contexte historique exceptionnel. Il était nécessaire de distinguer un phénomène de mode, une attitude, d'une souffrance existentielle ou d'un ennui d'essence pascalienne. Il nous a semblé indispensable également de distinguer l'ennui de la mélancolie à laquelle nous avions déjà consacré un volume dans cette collection. Mélancolie et ennui ont un lien avec le vide, le vide ressenti au présent. Mais dans l'ennui, ce vide est une sorte d'atonie, d'état qui s'étale, sans relief. L'ennui, c'est la résignation au vide, â la monotonie, c'est l'impuissance à ouvrir une faille, une brèche dans cet état monocorde. Pour définir l'expérience de l'ennui, quelle que soit l'époque envisagée, ne faut-il pas partir du rapport de l'homme au temps ? L'ennui, c'est le sentiment de l'éternelle permanence. Nul futur n'est à venir, rien n'adviendra jamais à un présent qui se répète. Ce temps mort est le temps de l'ennui. La vie ne peut plus être sentie que comme déception, répétition, absence, non-être. Ce n'est plus l'objet qui déçoit le sujet, c'est le sujet qui se déçoit lui-même. L'expérience de l'ennui relève d'une sorte d'incapacité originelle à être affecté. C'est le désir lui-même qui disparaît avec tout ce que cela implique de suspension des sens et disparition de ce qui reste fondamental dans la Mélancolie : la nostalgie

    Abstract: Elizabeth Singer Rowe played a pivotal role in the development of the novel during the eighteenth century.Winner of the CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title of the Choice ACRLElizabeth Singer Rowe and the Development of the English Novel is the first in-depth study of Rowe's prose fiction. A four-volume collection of her work was a bestseller for a hundred years after its publication, but today Rowe is a largely unrecognized figure in the history of the novel. Although her poetry was appreciated by poets such as Alexander Pope for its metrical craftsmanship, beauty, and imagery, by the time of her death in 1737 she was better known for her fiction. According to Paula R. Backscheider, Rowe's major focus in her novels was on creating characters who were seeking a harmonious, contented life, often in the face of considerable social pressure. This quest would become the plotline in a large number of works in the second half of the eighteenth century, and it continues to be a major theme today in novels by women.Backscheider relates Rowe's work to popular fiction written by earlier writers as well as by her contemporaries. Rowe had a lasting influence on major movements, including the politeness (or gentility) movement, the reading revolution, and the Bluestocking society. The author reveals new information about each of these movements, and Elizabeth Singer Rowe emerges as an important innovator. Her influence resulted in new types of novel writing, philosophies, and lifestyles for women. Backscheider looks to archival materials, literary analysis, biographical evidence, and a configuration of cultural and feminist theories to prove her groundbreaking argument

    Abstract: The title of this volume refers to a reality which is often dramatically experienced, in different historical phases, by all the territories where Slavic cultures lived in contact with other ethnic groups. Beyond the problems of coexistence, which is additionally complicated today by phenomena such as globalisation and multiculturalism that disguise identity conflicts, the history of the Slavs has always been intertwined with that of other peoples. Therefore, it seemed appropriate to propose the recurrent theme of "borders", which offers ample space for reflection on a multiplicity of aspects of Slavic cultures. Today Italy still looks at the countries of Central and Eastern Europe with a certain skepticism. The languages and traditions of this area remain little or not at all known. The migratory flows of the peoples in the past twenty years have contributed to creating the image of a backward Europe of secondary importance, which wants to impose itself on the Europe of primary importance. This collective volume, on the other hand, wants to show how we can strive to understand our identity as Europeans only by widening our gaze to the east and learning the lesson of the territories of Central and Eastern Europe. Even if the western Slavs and part of the southern Slavs have participated in western history since the Middle Ages and were then divided by historical events, a new European identity can be forged only by reflecting on the events of the entire Slavic world, and experiencing the same difficulties of coexistence (as is now also the experience of western Europe) between residents and immigrants, majority and minority cultures, identity and otherness

    Abstract: Elegantie lingue latine is the masterpiece of Lorenzo Valla's reflection on language, through which the humanist gave birth to a real re-foundation of Latin. To date we still do not have a modern, scientifically based edition of the text characterising the various editorial phases of the work, on which the author worked for over ten years and which, arbitrarily and by the author's own will, was in circulation long before its official publication. This research is part of a future complete edition of the text: the first complete edition of a book of the "Elegantie" is presented, limited to the fifth book on the "disputatio verborum", based on the examination, albeit partial, of the handwritten tradition and on a global reconsideration of the editorial history work

    Abstract: The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter is the most costly aircraft acquisition program in Defense Department history. RAND assessed the potential for savings by reconfiguring the U.S. Air Force’s combat-coded F-35s into larger squadrons, adjusting the Primary Aerospace Vehicle Authorized (PAA) mix across the Active and Reserve Components, and adjusting the percentage of PAA permanently assigned to locations in the continental United States

    Abstract: The work analyses the complex relationship between mental illnesses and curative medicine in the writings of E.T.A. Hoffmann, highlighting problems deriving from unsuitable practices, and shedding light on the overwhelming, asymmetric relationship between doctor/patient, man/woman. The work analyses the doubling phenomena arising from the diaries, which Hoffmann overcame determined not to fall into madness; moreover, the author highlights Hofmmann's qualities as a man and a scholar, attentive to the limits of therapies, questioning doctors without understanding. The author summarises Hoffmann's ideas on the libertarian approach to illness, which includes the acceptance of the patient in their whole being, and presents his idea of therapy consisting of interpersonal dialogue and of listening to a story which reflects a similar case. The author also suggests the novelty of the "talking cure" method ante litteram, which was then successfully adopted by psychoanalysis: a method full of ideas, fruitful for literature, from Poe to Schnitzler, and for cinema, from Hitchcock to Kubrick

    Abstract: This volume springs from that fruitful project of scientific cooperation between the humanities departments of Università di Firenze and University of Arizona which was the Forum for the Study of the Literary Cultures of the Southwest (2000-2007). Tri-cultural, at least (Native, Hispanic and Anglo-American), and multi-lingual, today's Southwest presents a complex coexistence of different cultures, the equal of which would be hard to find elsewhere in the United States. Of this virtually inexhaustible object of study, the essays here collected tackle an ample range of themes. While the majority of them are concerned with the literatures of the Southwest, still a good third falls into the fields of history, art history, ethnography, sociology or cultural studies. They are partitioned in four sections, the first three reflecting the chronology of the stratification of the three major cultures and the fourth highlighting one of the most sensitive topics in and about contemporary Southwest - the borderlands/la frontera

    Abstract: It is a Sardinia out of time, on the threshold of history, the one emerging from the pages of Giuseppe Dessí's novels and short stories. But it is also a living Sardinia, full of the contradictions occurring in the landscape and in the vicissitudes of men. The profound relationship which bound Dessí to his land, nourishing his fiction, non-fiction and intellectual works, stands out noticeably in the correspondence collected in this volume. The unpublished letters, found in four different Italian archives, were transcribed and duly annotated by Giulio Vannucci. They tell about the birth and composition of a 1951 special issue of Pietro Calamandrei's «Il Ponte» dedicated to Sardinia, and reconstruct the genesis of the splendid anthology «Scoperta della Sardegna», issued in 1965 by Alberto Vigevani's publisher «Il Polifilo». In those two extraordinary books, the writer left the narrating voice to others for once. Within them, he built a different choral story of the island not only through the words of friends, but also through those of scholars, historians, politicians and many more. In the case of «Il Ponte», Dessí put himself at Calamandrei's service to find suitable collaborators and talk about post World War Two Sardinia, while choosing researchers who could trace a new and original guide for the cultural discovery of the island for «Il Polifilo». The correspondence goes over all of this, but also over culture in the Sixties and the dialogues and intellectual tensions accompanying Dessí in the writing of two works which, thanks to their anthropological and social acuity, still tell the modern reader of a 'vital home' that was his

    Abstract: Provides a new account of the emergence of Irish gothic fiction in mid-eighteenth century. This book provides a robustly theorised and thoroughly historicised account of the ‘beginnings’ of Irish gothic fiction, maps the theoretical terrain covered by other critics, and puts forward a new history of the emergence of the genre in Ireland. The main argument the book makes is that the Irish gothic should be read in the context of the split in Irish Anglican public opinion that opened in the 1750s, and seen as a fictional instrument of liberal Anglican opinion in a changing political landscape. By providing a fully historicized account of the beginnings of the genre in Ireland, the book also addresses the theoretical controversies that have bedevilled discussion of the Irish gothic in the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s. The book gives ample space to the critical debate, and rigorously defends a reading of the Irish gothic as an Anglican, Patriot tradition. This reading demonstrates the connections between little-known Irish gothic fictions of the mid-eighteenth century (The Adventures of Miss Sophia Berkley and Longsword), and the Irish gothic tradition more generally, and also the gothic as a genre of global significance.Key Features* Examines gothic texts including Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, Horace Walpole's The Castle of Otranto, Bram Stoker's Dracula, Charles Robert Maturin's Melmoth the Wanderer, (Anon), The Adventures of Miss Sophia Berkley and Thomas Leland's Longsword * Provides a rigorous and robust theory of the Irish Gothic * Reads early Irish gothic fully into the political context of mid-eighteenth century IrelandThis title was made Open Access by libraries from around the world through Knowledge Unlatched

    Abstract: De Cicéron à Pétrarque, d'Érasme aux auteurs des livres pour secrétaires qui affluent sur le marché éditorial aux xvie et xviie siècles, l'écriture épistolaire ne cesse de se plier, sous la plume des écrivains, à de nouvelles exigences d'expression littéraire, entre tradition et modernité. Accédant au statut de genre littéraire, portée par l'élan humaniste et le classicisme de la Renaissance, la lettre finit par acquérir définitivement une valeur exemplaire pour propose des modèles de style, de langue, tout en contribuant à façonner les formes du vivre ensemble et les représentations de l'homme en société. Les études réunies dans ce volume collectif offrent une analyse approfondie de la notion d'exemplarité appliquée à la littérature épistolaire de la première époque moderne. Il s'agit d'une forme littéraire sur laquelle les études sur l'exemplarité ont fait l'impasse, pour privilégier le domaine de la nouvelle, du roman ou de l'écriture autobiographique. Quelles sont les stratégies qui président à la construction de l'exemplarité épistolaire ? Les auteurs et les ouvrages considérés dans ce volume recouvrent le territoire de la République des Lettres, incluant l'Italie, la France, l'Espagne, sans oublier l'apport d'un penseur cosmopolite comme Érasme. Dans cette perspective interdisciplinaire, les approches de la notion d'exemplarité sont multiples : elles permettent de suivre l'émergence de figures du « je » épistolaire qui se veulent exemplaires car elles proposent des paradigmes de vie fondés sur des valeurs intellectuelles, philosophiques, spirituelles, etc. Elles soulignent aussi l'importance des réseaux de correspondance et des modèles de sociabilité, sans négliger enfin la dimension pédagogique propre à l'enseignement scolaire de l'art de la lettre et aux manuels. Lieu de négociation et de partage, la lettre n'a-t-elle pas réinventé les formes de l'exemplarité ?

    Abstract: The Spanish civil war is considered a key point of analysis of the first half of the 1900s because of the peculiar context in which it developed, the ideologies that provoked it and for the controversies that still accompany it. An event of this magnitude has had and continues to have a great resonance in literature; this essay compares two authors at the antipodes, which well summarize the socio-political debate that accompanies the theme: José María Gironella, author close to the regime, and Juan Benet, hermetic writer. The contrast between the motivations and objectives of the two writers is accompanied by incompatible narrative choices. With memory as both a judge and a defendant, the authors open two different paths of communication with the reader: from history to man, from man to history

    Abstract: A private and distant Sardinia animates the texts of this double correspondence, between archaic landscapes and personal and literary mythologies, in which Ferrara, the town of the authors' youthful years, is occasionally mentioned, with its richness of life, magazines (Bottai's «Primato», «Corriere Padano» with Bassani...), evening meetings in taverns or rented rooms, walks along the Rampari river, and the use of playful nicknames which would continue even after youth ended. A world made of concrete things, animated and enlivened by strong intellectual curiosities and passions, emerges from the letters reconstructing the life and history of Giuseppe Dessí, Mario Pinna and Claudio Varese, which have been carefully transcribed and annotated by Costanza Chimirri. The correspondence opens with the years spent in Ferrara - after Pisa, a crucial moment for their education - and allows the author to reconstruct atmospheres and environments, readings and work, offering a significant cross-section of twentieth-century Italy from within. The letters are never disconnected from one another, but rather united by the continuous call to the triple friendship in the name of Giuseppe Dessí, who is always present in the others' speeches even when he is not actually mentioned. The correspondence also allowed to bring to light unpublished texts by the most secluded member of the group (Mario Pinna, an avid reader of the classics, Spanish specialist, author of poems in the dialect of Logudoro and of short stories set in Sardinia), to strengthen the role that has always been played by the eldest, Claudio Varese, the maître-camarade; and to confirm once again how much Dessí's creative universe, deeply marked by the biographical element, has continued to develop and feed under the wise and affectionate gaze of fraternal friends, in an exchange which can give life to an actual collective imagination
