Transformation of Space in the Adaptation of <i>La straniera</i>
The article aims to examine the transformations of space in the adaptation of La straniera, the novel of the Iraqi writer Younis Tawfik, made by the Italian director Marco Turco. The importance of these two works, which have recently won the Med Agora Award, sponsored by the Mediterranean Observatory and Suq Festival, comes from an historical value, since the film La straniera is one of the first film adaptations of Italian Narrative of Migration. From a textual analysis that highlights the differences between the themes in the novel and the screenplay, the article passes to the transformations of space, with the purpose of illustrating a series of reports linking the spatial coordinates with their geo-cultural values. The textual analysis leads also to consider the gap between the intercultural project of Tawfik and multicultural one of Turco. In conclusion, the article demonstrates, through an “the image of Italy” provided by the Iraqi author and the Italian director, how the spatial transformation may give rise to new interpretations of space, impacting on the original message of the literary text

Elias Canetti e Toni Maraini a Marrakech: un viaggio nella memoria
La ciudad de Marrakech, famosa por su compleja historia y su encanto oriental "exótica", es una de las ciudades marroquíes que más ha inspirado a artistas y escritores occidentales: desde Delacroix a Matisse hasta la narrativa de Juan Goytisolo. Este artículo examina dos autores europeos que han escrito sobre esta ciudad: Elias Canetti y Toni Maraini. Teniendo en cuenta la diversidad de enfoques de los dos escritores, el artículo se centra en el análisis pre-linguistc del autor búlgaro y las características interdisciplinarias (feminismo, historia social y política) en la narrativa de Maraini. Lejos de la visión orientalista legendaria que considera el Oriente como un mito, ambos autores ilustran Marrakech como un lugar en el que la tradición y la modernidad definen los límites de la memoria.The city of Marrakech, famous for its complex history and its oriental "exotic" charm, is one of the Moroccan cities that has most inspired Occidental artists and writers: from Delacroix to Matisse up to the narrative of Juan Goytisolo.

Due gialli a Roma tra via Merulana e Piazza Vittorio: Gadda e Lakhous a confronto
<i>Quer Pasticciaccio brutto de via Merulana</i> di Carlo Emilio Gadda (1957) e <i>Scontro di civiltà per un ascensore a Piazza Vittorio</i> di Amara Lakhous (2006) raccontano entrambi un omicidio che sconvolge la quotidianità di due quartieri romani: il primo, ambientato in epoca fascista, rimane un mistero grazie all’incompiutezza voluta dell’opera; il secondo, ambientato invece in una Roma multiculturale contemporanea, si risolve nonostante la “doppia verità” a cui giungono le indagini. Oltre a prendere in esame i vari livelli di intertestualità che vanno dall’uso dialettale all’ironia, dal continuo spostamento tra il particolare e l’universale alle sperimentazioni narrative che danno luogo al “romanzo enciclopedico”, il saggio vorrebbe dimostrare, tramite analisi comparativa, come i due romanzi si incontrino soprattutto nell’intento di evidenziare il disagio esistenzialista della società che oltrepassa sia il “giallo”, sia la “verità” che si trova sempre altrove
ELIAS CANETTI E TONI MARAINI A MARRAKECH: UN VIAGGIO NELLA MEMORIA
Elias Canetti and Toni Maraini to Marrakech: a viaggio nella memoria.Nel presente articolo, si prendono in esame due opere di due autori decisamente lontani l’uno dall’altra, ma che si incontrano negli stessi luoghi nei loro sentimenti. La prima opera è “Le voci di Marrakech” (1968), dello scrittore bulgaro di famiglia ebrea e premio Nobel per la Letteratura, Elias Canetti, mentre la seconda è “Ultimo tè a Marrakech”, un diario di viaggio uscito nel 2000, della scrittrice e poetessa italiana, Toni Maraini.
Entrambi questi viaggi nel mondo arabo, sono ritratto socioculturale del Marocco contemporaneo, conditi da squarci di vita quotidiana, i quali in modi e forme differenti, offrono la possibilità di compiere una serie di analisi e di riflessioni che interessano la tesa relazione ontologica tra occidente e oriente, ma anche una vasta gamma di campi interdisciplinari: dal femminismo alla teoria postcoloniale; dalla politica ai cultural studies.
Abstract
In this article, we examine two works by two authors who are very distant from each other, but who meet in the same places in their feelings. The first work is "The voices of Marrakech" (1968), by the Bulgarian writer of Jewish family and Nobel Prize for Literature, Elias Canetti, while the second is "Last tea in Marrakech", a travel diary published in 2000, by Italian writer and poet, Toni Maraini.
Both of these trips to the Arab world are sociocultural portraits of contemporary Morocco, seasoned with glimpses of everyday life, which in different ways and forms, offer the possibility of carrying out a series of analyzes and reflections that affect the tense ontological relationship between the West and east, but also a wide range of interdisciplinary fields: from feminism to postcolonial theory; from politics to cultural studies
