Aprile 1924: fiori di carta per Eleonora Duse
Get PDFQuesto contributo porta alla luce vari articoli usciti sulle principali testate italiane con l’annuncio della morte di Eleonora Duse, avvenuta a Pittsburgh il 21 aprile 1924. Essi racchiudono intensi ricordi che vanno ben oltre il necrologio tradizionale, e sono accomunati da un implicito ma pulsante desiderio: offrire un ritratto dell’attrice che vinca la sfida del tempo e l’effimero del teatro. Ne emerge un’immagine più viva che mai, destinata a consolidare ulteriormente il mito della Duse, a omaggiare il suo talento unico e a tramandare la sua straordinaria arte ai posteri. This article focuses on a series of articles published on the main Italian newspapers announcing Eleonora Duse’s death, which occurred in Pittsburgh on April 21, 1924. The memories that they contain actually exceed the traditional form of the obituary and they share the same strong desire: to offer a portrait of the actress able to challenge time and the fleeting dimension of theatre. The result is a particularly vivid image, one destined to consolidate Duse’s myth, to pay homage to her unique talent and to hand down her extraordinary art to posterity

Intellectual History Meets Literary Studies, or What Happens to Ideas in Literature
Get PDFIdeas in literature are immersed into a huge mass of non-conceptual discourses; take very often a metaphoric form; they are in many texts entrusted to fictional persons, to imaginary characters; they have a specific, and even paradoxical, form of responsibility. These features of ideas in literature, making them a privileged object of study in intellectual history, are exemplified by Théophile Gautier’s novel Mademoiselle de Maupin, more precisely by its preface, considered to be a manifesto of Art for Art’s Sake doctrine

J.M.G. Le Clézio and Baruch Spinoza: Understanding and Accepting the ‘God’ of Material Reality
Get PDFThe Dutch philosopher Baruch Spinoza and the contemporary Franco-Mauritian author J.M.G. Le Clézio place great emphasis on the materiality of the human condition. For both of these extremely divergent thinkers, the path to existential redemption and spiritual edification is inseparable from the biotic network of life to which we are inextricably linked. Given that nothing exists in a cosmic vacuum in complete isolation from other material organisms, Spinoza and Le Clézio urge the modern subject to deconstruct seductive, anthropocentric ideology and to embrace reality. Indeed, understanding and accepting our own corporality in addition to exploring the complex relationship between ourselves and the cosmic forces that sustain us is perhaps the only true path to self-actualization that allows us to project meaning upon the absurdity of the universe
