    Piazza Chiesa San Sebastiano, 3 - 09030 ELMAS www.equilibrielmas.it – [email protected] ELMAS Venerdì 11 Febbraio 2011 - ore 17.30 Sala Riunioni Biblioteca Comunale Piazza Chiesa San Sebastiano, 3 VIAGGIO LETTERARIO NELL’ISOLA DI SARDEGNA Con la partecipazione dello scrittore Gianluca Floris Presentano: Gianni Stocchino e Giuseppe Pusceddu Un affascinante viaggio nelle regioni letterarie e geografiche dell’isola in compagnia di oltre 150 autori. Una guida letteraria leggera, godibile e ricca di curiosità e aneddoti, con i contributi originali di Daniele Barbieri, Annalisa Ferruzzi, Michela Murgia, Gianluca Floris, Salvatore Orunesu, Marcello Fois, Anna Maria Ganga, Alberto Capitta, Nello Rubattu, Mama Sabot, Nigel Foxell, Gianluca Medas, I Portoghesi Esclusi. Il nostro viaggio è dentro un parco letterario immenso, che comprende tutta l’area dell’isola, isolette comprese. Questa grande area l’abbiamo suddivisa per regioni storiche. Per ogni zona sono stati riportati brani di scrittori, poeti e viaggiatori che hanno ambientato o tratto ispirazione per le loro opere da questi luoghi. Ci sono gli scrittori sardi maggiormente conosciuti, dalla Deledda a Salvatore Satta, da Giuseppe Dessì a Salvatore Mannuzzu, ma anche romanzieri dell’Ottocento e dei primi del Novecento poco conosciuti al grande pubblico: da Enrico Costa a Giovanni Antonio Mura, da Filiberto Farci ad Antonio Cossu. Naturalmente non mancano i nomi della nuova generazione della narrativa sarda, da Sergio Atzeni a Marcello Fois, da Giulio Angioni a Michela Murgia. Scrittori e poeti continentali e forestieri: Gabriele D’Annunzio, Vincenzo Cardarelli e Salvatore Quasimodo, e lo scrittore di noir medioevali Valerio Evangelisti, giusto per fare qualche nome noto al grande pubblico.

Introduzione Apro il mio intervento con un ringraziamento rivolto al presidente del- l’associazione di “Onomastica & Letteratura”, Bruno Porcelli, per l’invito rivoltomi a tracciare un profilo degli studi di onomastica letteraria relativi alla Sardegna. Nella mia ricostruzione prenderò in considerazione gli studi onomastici condotti su autori sardi o che comunque ambientino la loro narrativa in Sardegna. Darò notizia anche di ricerche in corso di stampa o di svolgimento, e segnalerò possibili direttive di analisi, citando autori ed elementi significativi della componente onomastica delle loro opere. Riprendendo collaudati criteri di repertorializzazione del settore di ri- cerca considerato,1 la ricognizione delle fonti riguarderà i contributi – di studiosi italiani o stranieri – presentati in riviste italiane e in opere pubbli- cate presso case editrici italiane, o in atti di congressi e giornate di studio organizzati in Italia. 1. Primo bilancio degli studi Nel loro fondamentale Repertorio bibliografico, che abbraccia l’onoma- stica letteraria in Italia dal 1980 al 2005, Bruno Porcelli e Leonardo Terru- si2 sottolineano la rilevanza quantitativa, oltre che qualitativa, degli studi italiani del settore a partire dagli ultimi decenni del secolo scorso. Come rilevano i due autori, per l’incremento delle ricerche nazionali su tipologie e funzioni dei nomi letterari è stata determinante l’attività svolta dall’associazione “Onomastica & Letteratura”, esplicatasi in particolare 1 Per tali criteri rimando a B.

  • Translingual Literary Practice: Literatures in Contact
    Translingual Literary Practice: Literatures in Contact Submitted by: Claudia Zucca Thesis for Doctorate of Philosophy Department: School of Languages, Literatures and Cultural Studies University of Dublin, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland June 2020 1 Declaration I declare that this thesis has not been submitted as an exercise for a degree at this or any other university and it is entirely my own work. 2 Acknowledgements I would like to express my sincere thanks and appreciation to my supervisor Professor Moray McGowan for all the support, guidance and mentoring in preparing for this thesis over the years. I would also like to thank him for the stimulating and invigorating discussions that have enabled the ‘translingual’ to emerge far beyond my own expectations. I would also like to thank Professor Peter Arnds in the German department, for his invaluable feedback, observations and suggestions, both during the review process and as the internal examiner. I would also like to thank Professor Cormac O' Cuilleanáin for his assistance during the review process. Furthermore, I would like to thank the external examiner from Leeds University, Professor Gigliola Sulis, for her invaluable feedback, which spurred me to further question my understanding of the term ‘translingual’. A special thanks to Paul Thomas Waterhouse for his expertise, his editing skills and for his invaluable help throughout the years. A special heartfelt thanks to my daughter Isabella Jean Frances Waterhouse and to Cecile Sigourney Waterhouse. 3 Abstract: A Translingual Literary Practice The aim of this thesis is to explore literary translingualism. The translingual is a term that is becoming widespread in academia, but is still in need of fuller definition and of being distinguished from other terms with which it overlaps.

  • Contro Tutti I Detrattori Non Cessa La Gloria Della Scrittrice Grazia Deledda, Degna Vincitrice Del Premio Nobel 1926 Per La Letteratura Di Paolo Pulina
    www.luigiladu.it Contro tutti i detrattori non cessa la gloria della scrittrice Grazia Deledda, degna vincitrice del Premio Nobel 1926 per la Letteratura di Paolo Pulina Su "La Nuova Sardegna" del 26 luglio 2016 Daniela Paba riferisce che il giorno prima a Perdasdefogu, durante il festival «7 sere, 7 piazze, 7 libri», si è tenuto un incontro tra studiosi dei due grandi romanzieri premi Nobel Grazia Deledda e Gabriel Garcia Marquez (accomunati da "una stessa solitudine, o soledad"). Scrive la cronista che "se è vero che lo scrittore colombiano avrebbe cambiato il giudizio negativo sulla scrittrice nuorese grazie alle conversazioni con Ignazio Delogu – come sostiene tra gli altri Angela Guiso – il ponte, tra i due, è Gabriela Mistral, molto amata da Marquez. Le motivazioni del Nobel, quasi identiche per Deledda e Mistral, avrebbero innescato l’appassionato confronto tra Delogu e Marquez e portato l’autore colombiano a rivedere l’ingrato giudizio verso Grazia Deledda». Cosa e' certo che ha messo per iscritto Garcia Marquez? Cito da Giulio Angioni ("La Nuova Sardegna" del 25 aprile 2012): "Il suo collega premio Nobel Gabriel García Márquez, in un suo scritto dove dice la sua sui premi Nobel per la letteratura, scrive laconicamente della ~ 1 ~ www.luigiladu.it Deledda che nel 1926 ha vinto il Nobel, e che è sopravvissuta altri dieci anni 'per riuscire a crederci' ". Per fortuna uno scrittore sardo importante come Marcello Fois non trascura nessuna occasione per sottolineare il fatto che «Grazia Deledda è nostra madre. È una certezza e un fastidio esattamente come l'identità. Giuseppe Dessi, Sergio Atzeni, Salvatore Satta hanno dovuto fare i conti con lei.

Textual and Musical Intermedialities in Italian Literature and Film by Erika Marina Nadir Doctor of Philosophy in Italian University of California, Los Angeles, 2017 Professor Luigi Ballerini, Chair This dissertation is a comparative study of Italian opera, literature, and film, and traces the textual and musical intermedialities among the art forms. Using the analytical prisms of Elio Vittorini’s linguaggio unitario del musicista and Giuseppe Verdi’s notion of verità, I examine the myriad ways that literature, film, and music interact and the effects on the respective arts. Chapter 1 focuses on literature that is written in such a way as to evoke music. I analyze three texts and their musical components: Vittorini’s Italian Resistance novel, Uomini e no; the postmodern novel Passavamo sulla terra leggeri by Sergio Atzeni—a soundscape of text that mimics contemporary opera structure; and Manzoni’s I promessi sposi, which was the inspiration for Giuseppe Verdi’s notion of verità in art.

Università di Sassari INTRODUZIONE L’incontro tra la letteratura e il diritto in generale, certamente, risale a tempi molto meno vicini, poiché è sempre stata presente la considerazione della letteratura antica come materiale prezioso capace di spiegare le origini e le evoluzioni dei vari istituti legislativi. Ma l’aspetto differenziante tra queste analisi del diritto nella letteratura e gli studi sui rapporti tra diritto e letteratura, iniziati nel ‘900 e non presente esplicitamente prima di allora, è sostanzialmente che in queste analisi emerge la necessità di una caratterizzazione ontologica e metodologica del predetto rapporto, tale da far nascere una nuova disciplina, se non il presagire l’omogeneizzazione
