Poezia visului real
2019
Abstract This article aims to review the anthology One Hundred and One Poems that includes a collection of poems and critical quotes selected by Alina Bako, who not only provides an overview of the lyrical universe created by Leonid Dimov, but also the critical tools needed for the specialized or non-specialized reader in order to step into the essence of Dimov’s creation. Thereby, the researcher contributes to the revival of the work of a poet who is still actual and valuable.
Elemente Avangardiste În Perioada Postbelică
2019
Abstract In this article we discuss the avant-garde phenomenon, emphasizing that it promotes thinking without prejudice or limits, in which the writer can explore completely new horizons of creativity. Both Virgil Mazilescu's poems and Nora Iuga's poems (both under the oneiric mantle), illustrate the idea of freedom in terms of poetic thinking and poetry, despite the political and literary context in which they were.
Gandhian Fasting and Cultural Indigestion in Jeffrey Eugenides’ “Air Mail”
2020
Abstract “Air Mail” is one of the ten stories included in Jeffrey Eugenides’ latest collection of stories, Fresh Complaint. Drawing on one of the characters in his third novel, The Marriage Plot, as well as on his own experiences in India working as a volunteer alongside Mother Theresa, “Air Mail” tells the story of young (and idealistic) Mitchell Grammaticus, who leaves the West in order to explore India, Bangkok, and a tropical island in the Gulf of Siam, where he finally succumbs to dysentery (as well as to thoughts regarding the futility of existence). Ripe in irony and biting sarcasm, coupled with a surprising tenderness and empathy, which are the landmarks of Eugenides’ writing, the s…
Cultural Encounters: Glimpses of the United States in Late Twentieth-Century Romanian Travel Narratives
2019
Abstract Travel narratives are complex accounts that include a significant layer of factual information – related to the geography, history, and/or the culture of a particular place or country – and a more personal layer, comprising the author’s unique perceptions and rendering of the travel experience. In the last thirty years of transition from a communist to a democratic society, the Romanians have been free to travel to any country they choose; however, during the communist period, especially during the 1980s, travelling to Western, capitalist countries, such as France, Great Britain, Canada, or the United States, was rather limited and fraught with complex issues. Still, Romanian trave…
Figurazioni dell'amor patrio - Esuli, profughi e migranti nelle arti visive del Risorgimento
2019
Figura simbolica fortemente radicata nell’immaginario risorgimentale, l’esule conferisce un volto umano a valori fondativi del discorso patriottico, come lo spirito di sacrificio e il senso di appartenenza alla comunità nazionale. Da tempo oggetto di studi storici, storico-letterari e comparatistici, il tema dell’esilio conosce una notevole fortuna iconografica nell’Europa del XIX secolo, qui per la prima volta esaminata in maniera sistematica grazie alla ricostruzione puntuale della genesi di opere che in virtù della loro natura allusiva suscitano l’interesse degli ambienti patriottici. Oltre a proporre una casistica dei motivi più ricorrenti, l’autore interpreta le immagini dell’esilio al…
Lauro Chiazzese, lo studio delle interpolazioni e i confronti ‘ritrovati’
2020
Summary A first draft of the Parte speciale of Chiazzese’s Confronti Testuali, projected as complement of the Parte generale published in 1933, was known for quite some time, but was only recently published by Falcone. Although this is an important transcription work of the manuscript, the reconstruction provided about the historical background – partially based on two different versions of an anecdote – should be read taking into account some clarifications.
La Vita Christi d?Isabel de Villena, misericòrdia restaurativa i profitosa doctrina al servei de la meditació
2019
Resum: Aquest article se centra en la intencionalitat de la Vita Christi d’Isabel de Villena, a partir dels aspectes controvertits que han sigut objecte de comentaris per part de la crítica literària, com ara la constant presència de les dones que envolten la vida de Jesucrist, així com el recurs a l’estil afectiu, pietós i emotiu que s’hi evidencia, i que hom ha considerat com a exponents de literatura profeminista o de gènere. En aquestes pàgines s’aporta una lectura de la Vita Christi basada en la influència del corrent espiritual de la devotio moderna, a mode d’ars meditandi, alhora que es reflexiona al voltant del propòsit doctrinal i didàctic de l’obra, en què la presència de les imat…
Joan Roís de Corella, Lamentació de Mirra, de Narciso, de Píramus i Tisbe: edizione critica
2016
Il contributo, che è un’anticipazione parziale dell’edizione critica integrale delle narrazioni mitologiche di Joan Roís de Corella (XV sec.) per Barcino (ENC), nasce dall’esigenza di rivedere la situazione testuale della faula in oggetto (Lamentació de Mirra, de Narciso, de Píramus i Tisbe) e di avanzare, dove necessario, nuove proposte di lettura. Esso consta di due parti, delle quali la prima contiene l’Introduzione, la seconda il Testo con note a piè di pagina, in cui si discutono questioni relative alla constitutio textus, l’Apparato e l’Apparato complementare. Nell’Introduzione si danno informazioni essenziali circa la tradizione manoscritta delle Lamentacions (altrimenti note come Lo…
Materiality and compositorial errors of a poetical incunabulum: the contribution of textual criticism
2019
L’anàlisi material dels testimonis d’una obra literària forma part de la fase de recensio en un procés de crítica textual, que ha d’anar més enllà de la mera descripció del continent. Cal atendre a la informació que donen aquestes característiques quant als continguts, quant al procés de transmissió dels textos, perquè aquestes dades tindran funcionalitat ecdòtica. Així, aquest treball estudia la materialitat i els errors d’un incunable poètic valencià, que és el primer d’una trilogía d’impresos dedicats a la Immaculada Concepció i patrocinats per Ferran Dies. The material analysis of the witnesses of a literary work is part of the phase of recension in a process of textual criticism, which…
Els manuscrits catalans de la Doctrina moral d?en Pacs
2018
This paper analyses from a material and textual viewpoint the four preserved manuscripts containing the Doctrina moral , a work written in the first half of the 15th century by a man from Majorca from the Pacs family. The study of these copies gives us new information about some of the most controversial aspects of this work, such as authorship and date. The two witnesses owned by the Bibliotheque Nationale de France are related to the Italian city of Naples, while the manuscript of the Biblioteca de Catalunya could have been in possession of a branch of the Pacs family, the Conilleres. The codex of the Arxiu de la Corona d’Arago, edited by Bofarull (1857), presents a more innovative copy, …
