Eroe Byroniano E Confronto Tra Manfred E Faust
EROE BYRONIANO E CONFRONTO TRA MANFRED E FAUST Introduzione all’autore: George Gordon Byron è considerato da molti critici il poeta indiscusso della corrente romantica. Il suo spirito libero e ribelle, che condivide con il suo amico Shelley, la sua passione per l’occulto, che lo rendono un possibile esponente della scuola satanica dei poeti, il suo evidente approccio con la corrente gotica e con tutto ciò che si può definire sublime, lo rendono sicuramente l’esempio vivente della definizione “bello e dannato”. La sua deformità fisica e il suo amore impossibile per la moglie di suo cugino fanno di lui un uomo dalla complessa e misteriosa personalità. E’ infatti risaputo che la sua vita fu piena di scandali, a causa della sua natura passionale e cinica. Il suo stile è chiaro ed egli è molto attento alle forme, tuttavia dalle sue opere ne esce anche una vena satirica, il cui scopo è rendere pubblico il suo disprezzo per le regole della società, che rendono la sua scrittura un’apoteosi di sfaccettature per niente scontate che rispecchiano il suo carattere. Eroe Byroniano: Tutti i protagonisti delle opere di Byron vengono definiti “eroi byroniani” per la loro evidente somiglianza con l’autore; in alcuni casi non sarebbe sbagliato parlare anche di autobiografia. L’elemento che accomuna tutti i protagonisti è il tema della ribellione: gli eroi del racconto scappano da un passato oscuro, pieno di costrizioni e disagi di diversi tipi, che li portano inevitabilmente sulla via della perdizione. Il loro fascino attira le persone che li circondano, ma il disprezzo che provano per il mondo supera ogni tentativo di creare un legame con gli altri personaggi. -

The collection arises from an international conference in La Spezia, Italy in 2011, one of a series of enterprising and stimulating annual conferences focusing on aspects of nineteenth-century music that has been supported by the Centro Studi Opera Omnia Luigi Boccherini (Lucca), in this case in collaboration with the Società di Concerti della Spezia and the Palazzetto Bru Zane Centre de musique romantique française (Venice). -
