Gli avantesti delle opere abbandonate. Georges Perec e la disseminazione dei fantasmi del romanzo
2022
The abandoned work is a form of voluntary incompletion because the interruption of the writing process is decided by the author himself. Abandonment is preceded by considerations and traces that make the process intelligible, especially when identified in avant-textual documents in which the author often not only plans the construction of the text but also reasons about it by tracing the criticalities that condition its progress. The article aims to reflect on some aspects of Georges Perec's abandoned works, showing how these are integrated within the completed works through the processes of dissemination and proliferation.
Perdre le fil: labyrinthes de la littérature française moderne
2009
From the day when Theseus killed the Minotaur, the Maze turned into a form in search of meaning, and became useless. As a result, one was enjoined to ascribe nw meanings to the empty strcuture. Modern writers, when confronted with such a void, will have explored all its possibilities: while some of them, like Michel Butor, dismiss the sacred dimensions, others, like Serge Doubrovsky, see in it the image of the self (the body, the psyche...), and others still, like Raymond Roussel, Alain Robbe-Grillet or Georges Pererc, make of the pure geometrical structure of the labyrinth an aesthetic model, and thus a mirror of the work of art. However, one still have to ask whether the labrinth is a val…
L’anamorphose du roman : les distorsions de la perspective dans "la Disparition" de Georges Perec
2007
L’anamorphose apparaît en application aux arts plastiques et se traduit par le bouleversement du point de vue habituel. Cette distorsion visuelle, en créant le caractère énigmatique de l’œuvre, vise à la déstabilisation du spectateur qui, sollicité par les formes, participe de la pluralité de la vision et de la démultiplication des possibles interprétatifs. Cette relativité de la place du spectateur permet la migration du concept d’anamorphose au domaine littéraire et son application en tant que pratique de création ou, plutôt, de réception : L’anamorphose […] procède par une intervention des éléments et des fonctions. Au lieu d’une réduction progressive à leurs limites visibles, c’est une …
The Impossible Portait. Georges Perec and His Condottiere
2016
Continuous and more or less veiled references, descriptions, inventions, images characterize the poetry of Georges Perec. But above all one image is significant not only to his poetics but to himself: that of Le Condottière, translated in english as Portrait of a Man. On 2012, thirty years after Perec’s death, the last piece of his literary image was discovered. Actually, it is the first image of this complex puzzle, the first time Gaspard Winckler, Perec’s recurrent alter-ego, appeared on the scene. Three main characters stay on the stage of Portrait of a Man: Gaspard Winckler, Antonello da Messina and the unknown warlord himself. Behind them stays, of course, Perec, the “character” into w…

Sfide della rappresentazione. I Trompe l'oeil di Georges Perec e Cuchi White
2016
L'articolo esamina le due opere curate a quattro mani dall'autore Georges Perec e dalla fotografa Cuchi white, Trompe l'oeil (1978) e L'oeil éblui (1981), come opere doppie di riflessione letteraria e fotografica sulla finzione figurativa dell'arte. Se il principio fondamentale della poetica di Perec è quello della "falsità referenziale", la fotografia di opere d'arte, e di Trompe l'oeil in particolare, non fa altro che doppiare il falso. Ne consegue una essenziale diffidenza nei confronti dell'immagine fotografica e della rappresentabilità tout court.
Fantasmi e trasmigrazioni. Le memorie degli altri in Georges Perec e Richard Mosse
2020
In questo saggio si analizzeranno due opere – Recits d’Ellis Island, di Georges Perec e Robert Bober e Incoming di Richard Mosse – e il loro modo di riflettere sulla Shoah in maniera eccentrica, obliqua attraverso due particolari lenti che guardano alle migrazioni di esseri umani in condizioni di pericolo: quella di phantasmata e quella di “trasmigrazione”, tanto nella sua accezione di migrazione, di passaggio di qualcosa o qualcuno attraverso lo spazio, ma anche attraverso il tempo, quanto nel senso di trascendenza dello spirito o dell’anima da una forma di esistenza corporea a forme di esistenza meno tangibili. All’interno di queste due opere la parola si fa accompagnare dall’immagine fot…
