It has been deemed “ferocious,” “a death-defying linguistic tightrope act,” and a combination of “dark and spiky emotions” in reviews appearing in popular newspapers. Taking the considerable critical investment in the affective dimension of Ferrante’s work as a point of departure, my dissertation examines the representation of emotions in My Brilliant Friend and in two Italian novels written between the 1960s and the 1970s – La Storia (1974, History: A Novel) by Elsa Morante (1912-1985) and L’arte della gioia (The Art of Joy, 1998/2008) by Goliarda Sapienza (1924-1996). -

ISSN 1697-4239 1. La Spagna all’inizio del XX secolo soffriva un ritardo sociale e politico, rispetto agli altri paesi europei, di notevole portata, situazione ereditata anche da epoche precedenti. La guerra civile del 1936-39, sarà la finalizzazione di questo periodo in un paese in cui l’unica parvenza di stabilità poteva avvenire sotto una forma di dittatura. Possiamo tranquillamente affermare che quello che successe nell’estate del 1936 fu una conseguenza di lotte secolari interne alla penisola iberica, nel febbraio sempre di quell’anno vi erano in Spagna due blocchi che si scontrarono durante le elezioni politiche, portando alla vittoria il fronte progressista, anche se in maniera abbastanza debole. Tra il 17 e il 18 luglio scoppiò la sollevazione autoritaria dei nazionalisti spagnoli con a capo un uomo che determinerà il futuro 74 Narrativa del Novecento AnMal Electrónica 39 (2015) A. -

Other Worlds: Travel Literature in Italy
Spring 2019 - Other Worlds. Travel Literature in Italy ITAL-UA 9283 Wednesdays, 10:30-1:15 pm Classroom Location TBA Class Description: This course, taught in English, will focus on the representation of travel experience in Modern Italian Literature and its related media, especially 20th Century Cinema, Modernist and Futurist Art, underground comics, and the way they intersect with each other. Its aim is to offer the student a new pattern in the succession of tendencies, movements and mass cultures, with a broader perspective, spanning from the 19th Century Post-Unification Italian culture and literature (Manzoni) to the 1980s “cult” writers and cartoonists and literary groups from the 1990s and 2000s (Tondelli, Ammanniti, Pazienza). With this pattern the student will be introduced to the dynamics of journey in the Italian culture and literature: not only a spatial journey abroad (in America with Calvino, The Orient with Tabucchi, Africa with Pasolini and Celati) or inland (especially the South of Carlo Levi), but also intellectually, politically and spiritually speaking: a path between the Wars (with Malaparte and Levi), the economic Boom, the Generation of ’68 and ’77, a psychedelic trip in New Age trends, and the so called Pulp Generation or Young Cannibals. To foster the student’s feedback one Site-visit will be proposed (at the Fondazione Casamonti in Florence) and a special Field Trip will be scheduled in Milan, to visit the new “Book Pride” Book Fair and interview a contemporary Italian writer and/or translator and/or editor at Verso Bookshop. With these topics and authors, the student will be engaged in a different history of Italian literature and culture, using also her or his knowledge in the Florentine context. -
Renato Poggioli. Between History and Literature
Pagine di storia della slavistica Studi Slavistici x (2013): 301-310 Roberto Ludovico Renato Poggioli. Between History and Literature Until the year 2007 only two critical articles had been written on Renato Poggioli: one by his colleague at Harvard University Dante Della Terza in 1971 (Della Terza 1971), and two much more recent ones: by Giuseppe Ghini (2005), and by the Belgian scholar Laurent Béghin (2005). In addition to these two articles, Ghini had circulated a short but informative bio-bibliographical document dated 2005 on the internet. These three scholars, with over a dozen others, including historians, slavicists, italianists, and comparativists, ani- mated a three-day symposium dedicated to Renato Poggioli’s centennial by three American Universities in 2007: the University of Massachusetts Amherst, Brown University and Har- vard University. The intent of the symposium was to reignite interest in Poggioli and to re- evaluate the role he had in the twentieth century’s international literary debate. Since then a number of new publications (see for instance Pavese, Poggioli 2010), newspaper articles (Pirani 2008; Canali 2008), conferences1, reprints of Poggioli’s work (Poggioli 2012), and even television broadcasts2 have contributed to rediscovering Renato Poggioli and his legacy as a scholar and as an intellectual. The collection of essaysRenato Poggioli. An Intellectual Biography, edited by the three organizers of the 2007 symposium – Lino Pertile, Massimo Riva and myself – is the first book-length publication entirely dedicated to Poggioli. Far from wanting to provide an annotated bibliography of critical literature on Pog- gioli, these few introductory notes are meant to suggest that the scarce presence of his name in literary criticism after his death in 1963 is strictly connected with his cultural profile and the unusual trajectory of the biographical events that led him to leave Florence and Italy to pursue a career as Professor of Slavic Studies and Comparative Literature at Harvard Uni- versity. -

4 Cesare Pavese14
4 Cesare Pavese14 Diaries written by suicides are rare. However, occasionally a diary written by a famous person who has died by suicide is published, and the present study explored the final year of a diary written by the Italian novelist Cesare Pavese. Pavese’s diary has been published in an English translation, thereby introducing two confounding elements, the translation itself and the fact that we cannot be sure that the editor of the diary did not omit some of the content. The Italian version is Il mestiere de vivere (Pavese, 1952), and an edited translation has appeared (Pavese, 1961). Cesare Pavese was born in Italy in 1908, and he killed himself at the age of 42 on August 27, 1950, in Turin, Italy. During that time, he became a leading intellectual, editor, translator, poet and nov- elist. The biographical details of Pavese’s life are taken from his biographer, Lajolo (1983). 4.1 Pavese’s Life Pavese was born on a farm in Santo Stefano Belbo in the Piedmont province of North Western Italy (which borders on Switzerland and France) on September 9, 1908. He often returned to his hometown in later years. Pinolo Saglione, a carpenter there, remained a friend and confidante. Pavese’s father Eugenio worked in Turin at the Court of Justice. Pavese’s mother, Consolina, was the daughter of wealthy merchants. Consolina had lost three children before Maria and Pavese, the first dying of diphthe- ria at the age of six. Pavese had a sister, Maria, six years his elder. Pavese’s childhood was spent in Turin during the Winter and Spring, and at the farm in Summer and Autumn. -

Cesare Pavese Collection Finding
Special Collections and University Archives : University Libraries Cesare Pavese Collection 1931-2006 1931-1950 13 titles (2 linear feet) Call no.: RB 037 Collection overview Simultaneously prolific and tragic, Cesare Pavese was a major figure in 20th century Italian letters. Born in the Piedmont region in 1908 and educated in Turin, Pavese was drawn to English-language literature as a student, writing his thesis on Walt Whitman (1930). Nearly overnight, he became well known as a translator of modern American and British fiction, from Melville, Faulkner, and Steinbeck to James Joyce and Gertrude Stein, and at the same time, he began to publish his own creative work beginning with Lavorare stanca, a book of poetry, in 1936. Although sentenced to three years of internal exile for his anti-fascist sympathies (1938-1941), he continued to write, capped by the appearance of his first two novels in 1941 and 1942. The war's end saw Pavese blossom into an exceptionally creative period, however even as his renown grew, the effects of depression and a failed love affair with the American actress Constance Dowling led him to suicide in August 1950. Two months before he had been awarded the prestigious Strega Prize. This collection of first and early editions by Cesare Pavese, donated by Lawrence G. Smith, includes first and early editions by Cesare Pavese, five of which are inscribed: three to Constance Dowling, one to his friend Leone Ginzburg (and later to Dowling), and the fifth to Doris and Harry. Smith also donated dozens of other volumes by and about Pavese to the Library's general collection.
