Abstract:
Have you ever told someone about something you had seen, but they wouldn’t believe you? That’s the situation in James Thurber’s “The Unicorn in the Garden.” The situation itself is domestic rather than organizational or administrative, but it provides a wonderful gateway into the world of the UNREAL ADMINISTRATOR: How would the police react if called in? What are the appropriate roles for social services agencies? For officials responsible for animal control? Or even for “neighborhood watch” organizations?

Abstract:
O presente ensaio apresenta o filme A vida secreta de Walter Mitty, dirigido por Ben Stiller e baseado em conto escrito por James Thurber na década de 1930, sob a perspectiva das noções de senso de realidade e de possibilidade, ambas apresentadas por Robert Musil em seu romance O homem sem qualidades. Demonstramos, ao lançar luzes sobre as diferentes vivências possíveis no intervalo, que há o potencial e o efetivado nas ações do protagonista, uma abundância de ilustrações de liberdade, rupturas com as limitações da vida pequeno-burguesa e de uma possível descoberta de si que surge na não hiera

Abstract:
James Thurber, along with others who wrote for The New Yorker magazine, developed the 'little man' comic figure. The little man as a central character was a shift from earlier nineteenth-century traditions in humor. This twentieth-century protagonist was a comic antihero whose function was to create sympathy rather than scorn and bring into question the values and behaviors of society rather than affirm them, as earlier comic figures did.

Superati «novant’anni d’impazienza» e dopo un lungo periodo votato all’autocommento e all’esplorazione delle proprie intenzioni, Raffaele La Capria ha raccolto le sue opere in due Meridiani curati da Silvio Perrella. La Capria ne ha celebrato l’uscita nella prolusione inaugurale di Salerno Letteratura, poi confluita nel breve autoritratto narrativo "Introduzione a me stesso" (2014). In questa sede, l’autore è tornato su alcuni punti essenziali della sua riflessione sulla scrittura, come la relazione, reciproca e ineludibile, fra tradizione e contemporaneità.
