PEREGO, MARTINA. "Il romanzo di formazione caraibico in inglese: una risposta all'istruzione coloniale." Doctoral thesis, Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, 2020. http://hdl.handle.net/10280/78939.
Full textThe present study aims to explore the Caribbean Bildungsroman tradition by considering the Bildungsroman genre, its features, and history, and by pointing out the peculiarities that the genre developed within the postcolonial tradition and specifically in the anglophone Caribbean context. The first chapter establishes what is meant by “Caribbean Bildungsroman” and introduces the twelve novels selected for this study. The study then proceeds by identifying four main topics, or macro themes, each developed in a separate chapter, and by comparing the way such themes are dealt with in each of the novels. The themes are: school and education, culture and history, politics, departure. The study closes on a brief reflection on the possibility of return.

Full textPhotography is used intermedially, recurring to different insertion modalities and strategies, to narrate countermemories and traumatic memories. Although intermediality is not ascribable to a series of convential practices, depending each of them on the narrative context, however it detains an organicity that guarantees the possibility to align it functionally to the processes and studies on the representability of trauma. Morever, because of the versatility of its poliedric nature, the narrative use of intermedial photographies (in their different declensions) retains an epistemological and methodological value for the studies on the externalization and processing of trauma. The aim of this study is to confront theoretical and narrative texts to analyze how they influence each other.

Doctoral thesis, Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna, 2019. http://amsdottorato.unibo.it/9052/1/cruccolini_cecilia_tesi.pdf.
Full textThis dissertation analyses urban spatial representations in contemporary utopian and science fiction novels, published in the last decade and written in English, with a particular attention devoted to the relationship between space and the characters who inhabit and live that space. The thesis is structured in five chapters. The analysis of the three texts considered - On Such a Full Sea by Chang-rae Lee (2014, cfr. Cap. 3), Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel (2014, cfr. Cap. 4) and MaddAddam, by Margaret Atwood (2013, cfr. Cap. 5) - shows an overall dystopian landscape in which the traditional city has disappeared, and a new fragmentation of communities is prevailing. In such a scenario, however, the subjects who embody a utopian impulse embrace a diasporic status which enables him/her to counteract, as a political gesture, against the dystopian space and its powers. The texts can be considered the heirs of science-fiction and fantasy author Ursula K. Le Guin and her short story “The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas” (1973), in which the inhabitants of a seemingly utopian city choose to leave it because of what they consider to be an unbearable injustice. As a way of a political gesture, they decide to start walking away from the city towards an unknown destination and to never come back. The first chapter presents the main theoretical references of the research: utopian studies, space studies, literary space studies, the notion of diaspora borrowed from Postcolonial Theory, theories revolving around walking as a cultural and political act, nomadism. The second chapter presents the corpus and the dystopian genre, with a particular focus on ‘critical dystopias.’ The last three chapters consist of the analysis.

Full textQuesta tesi elabora una strategia di interpretazione che, basandosi sui principi fondamentali della teoria della diaspora e degli studi postcoloniali, ambisce a leggere le opere di Edwidge Danticat, Jamaica Kincaid, Andrea Levy e Dionne Brand a partire da un’immagine che, per ciascuna, è cifra di uno stile esclusivo e metafora di una precisa visione del mondo. Così facendo, viene messo in luce il carattere eclettico, composito e sfaccettato dell’esperienza diasporica caraibica. Lo studio, che si fonda sul presupposto che un fenomeno così complesso vada interpretato simultaneamente come avvenimento storico, evento personale e trasformazione socio-culturale, parte dalla consapevolezza che non basti un’unica voce per rappresentare adeguatamente l’eterogeneità che caratterizza la diaspora caraibica. La decisone di applicare alla tesi il principio della multivocalità e l’idea di mettere insieme le immagini prodotte da più menti, piuttosto che concentrarsi su un singolo immaginario, vanno dunque interpretate come scelte mirate a fornire una visione panoramica dell’esperienza diasporica che ne metta a fuoco eventuali discontinuità e faccia luce sulle inevitabili zone d’ombra. Attraverso una strategia basata sulla raccolta di immagini apparentemente disparate, questa tesi convalida l’idea che l’eterogeneità dell’esperienza della diaspora caraibica si sottragga ad un’interpretazione univoca e dimostra come, all’interno della produzione letteraria legata a questo fenomeno, il caos, la perdita, il passaggio e il desiderio possano facilmente considerarsi sia dei validi strumenti interpretativi che delle fonti di energia creativa.

Full textAutobiography is difficult to define as a literary genre and is almost at the boundaries of literature. It is marked by an inextricable mixture of textuality, referentiality and construction. The autodegetical narrative aims at giving an order to a life story, thus attributing a meaning to memories in the same time as it defines their order and composition. We intend to trace back the origin of the autobiographical genre and underline the continuity of tradition in some representative examples of literary autobiographical narrative of the twentieth century.

Full textThe research investigates the extent to which Gianni Rodari’s (1920-1980) works changed in their English translations through the mediating presence of publishers, reviewers, and especially translators between the 1960s and 2011. With reference to the cultural context of production of translated works (Bassnett & Lefevere, 1998; Chesterman et al., 2000), translational patterns of children’s literature were firstly studied from a retrospective point of view (Toury, 2012) to contextualise Rodari’s books in English in the UK and the US. Secondly, the intervention of translators in four of these books was analysed within the mediation framework provided by S-Universals in translation (Chesterman, 2004). The discrete analysis of the translations by Patrick Creagh (1965, 1971), Jack Zipes and Antony Shugaar (2008, 2011 respectively), based on the nine translational trajections identified by J. L. Malone (1988), showed that the translators adopted different foreignising and domesticating strategies (Venuti, 1995) according to the intended public. More specifically, domesticating strategies presented a high degree of creativity in line with Rodari’s original narrative purpose, whereas Shugaar’s foreignising translation (2011) retained references to the Italian culture as in Rodari’s source text, marking a shift of audience from children to adults, from the Italian to the English target text.

Full textThe dissertation deals with the correspondence between the writer, literary critic and American political activist Mary McCarthy and the Italian essayist and theater critic Nicola Chiaromonte: an epistolary exchange, their, still unpublished despite the growing number of publications concerning the two authors. The correspondence maintained with close friends is to be considered a fundamental element to shed light on the most intimate aspects of Mary McCarthy's life and artistic creation: in particular, this correspondence reveals the author's more human and personal side (rarely shown in public) and the devotion and respect he felt towards the one he considered as her mentor, critic and friend. The same feelings are reflected in the words of Nicola Chiaromonte, so austere and measured in his work as playful and passionate with his closest friends. The thesis consists of two main parts. The brief general introduction is followed by a first part of historical-narrative nature, in which the biographies of Mary McCarthy and Nicola Chiaromonte alternate up to the fundamental moment of their meeting, starting from which their experiences are intertwined in the events who saw them involved. The second part of the thesis is instead the actual correspondence: 115 among letters, telegrams and tickets, supplied with critical notes in order to allow a better understanding.

Full text"Endymion" is the traît d’union between Keats’s juvenilia ("Poems", 1817)and his better known, and, conventionally, ’mature’ works ("Lamia, Is- abella ... and other Poems", 1820). By its nature, it is a transitional work, and thus gives the scholar special insight into the development of Keats’s poetics and idiom. Moreover, "Endymion" is the Keatsian work which most irritated and provoked contemporary critics; the two pieces of venomous invective it received in the periodical press of the time have become the stuff of scholarly legend. Recent scholarly work has analysed the language of "Endymion" in socio-political terms; my work focuses on more strictly linguistic concerns. I reconstruct the linguistic context of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries in order to explain the reviewers’ unease with regard to "Endymion". I maintain that eighteenth-century prescriptivism arose from a deep-seated anxiety regarding language, Lockian in origin, and that the ensuing desire to stabilize and therefore control language informed Romantic criticism in general, and the criticism of Keats’s work in particular, more fundamentally than politics could or did. I analyse the imaginative and linguistic markers of "Endymion" in order to prove that Keats had elaborated a “poetics of uncontrollability”, a series of textual and stylistic strategies, which violated linguistic and narrative standards and were therefore perceived as unsettling.
