Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 Abstract The main aim of my research was to write a critical monograph on Silvio D’Arzo, a minor but very interesting contemporary Italian novelist (Reggio Emilia, 1920-1952). Although many essays, articles and even some books had been written on D’Arzo (and the proceedings of two congresses were also available), a complete study dealing with the different aspects connected to the life and the activity of this writer was still missing. I prepared an exhaustive and up-to-date bibliography of the creative worksby D’Arzo (this was at times made difficult by the sheer number of periodicals to which the author contributed, often not to be found in most libraries in Italy) and of the critical studies on him. The bibliography is therefore quite an important result of my thesis, and will constitute a fundamental starting point for any future study on D’Arzo.
