Žanru iezīmes audzinošajos romānos (Bildungsroman) mūsdienu krievu literatūrā.
2018
Maģistra darbā tiek pētīta žanru konvencija trīs mūsdienu krievu audzināšanas romānos – N.Gorlanovas un V.Bukura “Audzināšanas romānā”, A.Slapovska “Feniksa sindromā” un O.Breiningeras “Padomju Savienībā adderola nebija”. Autors, pamatojoties uz Bildungsroman žanram veltītiem zinātniskiem pētījumiem, apraksta audzināšanas romāna žanra iezīmes diahroniskā perspektīvā, aplūko romāna izcelsmi un turpmāko attīstību Eiropā, atklāj atšķirīgus audzināšanas romāna veidus (apakštipus) un tā invariantās formas. Tādējādi ir iespēja identificēt gan tradicionālās žanru konvencijas mūsdienu krievu literatūras tekstos, gan arī noteikt katra analizējamā literārā darba pieskaitāmību kādai no Bildungsroman i…
Postfazione a E. C. Osondu, Quando il cielo vuole spuntano le stelle
2020
The Postface to E. C. Osondu's most recent novel offers a commentary on this Bildungsroman, whose protagonist is a young man from an unknown African country who leaves home behind to reach Europe hoping in a better world. Although narrated in a lyrical tone, the protagonist's epic journey resonates with the actual stories of the uncountable young African men who in the past years have crossed the Black Mediterranean.
Les avatars du roman picaresque en Allemagne : Friedrich Schlegel et le roman romantique
2011
International audience; Friedrich Schlegel (1772-1829), représentant majeur - avec Novalis - du "Romantisme d'Iéna", a consacré de nombreux écrits à l'esthétique romantique. Il a présenté son roman Lucinde (1799) comme le premier "roman romantique", tout en se référant, pour définir ce nouveau genre, à la grande histoire du roman européen, et en particulier à la tradition espagnole du roman picaresque.
La vita e le strane sorprendenti avventure di Arturo. Per un confronto con Robinson Crusoe
2020
he life and strange surprising adventures of Arturo. Cues for a comparison with Robinson Crusoe · The article displays a comparative reading between L’isola di Arturo and Defoe’s Robinson Crusoe, inspired by a statement made by Elsa Morante in a 1957 interview after the awarding of the ‘Strega’ prize. In the first place, the press coverage of the novel is studied with particular attention to confrontations with Robinson. Secondly, I aim to trace the steps of the possibility that Morante actually took into account Defoe’s novel. Afterward, a short, comparative study concerning a possible impact of Robinson on Arturo is proposed. The confrontation goes through several issues: narrative patter…
La literatura en la frontera lingüística : el caso de la escritora italo-suiza Fleur Jaeggy
2012
"El verdadero milagro proustiano no es que una magdalena mojada en té tenga el mismo gusto que otra magdalena mojada en té y despierte el recuerdo; es, más bien, que esa segunda magdalena resucite con ella un cuarto, una casa, una ciudad entera, y que ese lugar antiguo pueda, por espacio de un segundo, conmover la solidez del lugar actual, forzar sus puertas y hacer vacilar sus muebles." [1] Genette aporta con estas palabras la idea principal de lo que en esta tesis se pretende analizar, es decir, llegar a la dimensión evocadora del contenido de los textos, del lenguaje, de los universos, de los motivos literarios, en este caso concreto a la dimensión evocadora de una autora que considero p…

2022

Reading Kazuo Ishiguro’s “Bewilderment Trilogy” as Bildungsromane
2018
Abstract In this essay, Kazuo Ishiguro’s “Bewilderment Trilogy” is read as a series of Bildungsromane that test the limits of that genre. In these thematically unrelated novels, characters reach critical points in their lives when they are confronted with the ways in which their respective childhoods have shaped their grownup expectations and professional careers. In each, the protagonist has a successful career, whether as a musician (The Unconsoled), a detective (When We Were Orphans), or a carer (Never Let Me Go), but finds it difficult to overcome childhood trauma. Ishiguro’s treatment of childhood in these novels foregrounds the tension between individual subjectivity and the formal st…
From a "child of light" to a "woman of genius": Sarah Grand's the beth book as the new woman bildungsroman
2021
The New Woman fiction, popular in the last decade of the 19th century, contested the traditional notions of gender roles and participated in the public debates on women’s rights. The protagonists of the New Woman novels refused to conform to the submissive and self-abnegating Victorian ideal of femininity. The article discusses the ways in which Sarah Grand, a prominent New Woman novelist and social activist, uses and transforms both the elements of her own life and the Bildungsroman conventions in her 1897 novel The Beth Book to create a heroine whose growth and development result in her personal independence and her active public engagement in women’s issues. Cast in a variety of social r…
