From James Joyce to Katherine Mansfield: Epiphanic Poetics and Writing of the Self
With the term and notion of epiphany Joyce created not only what was to become a fundamental tool for the interpretation of his own work. He gave a name to – thus contributing to make visible – an issue which, to a large extent, characterised all modernist poetics and which determined the restless formal experimentation of the period. In this essay, I analyse some aspects of Katherine Mansfield’s reflection on the epiphanic moment, which she calls “glimpse”. My aim is twofold: on the one hand, I wish to highlight the original stance of this major and highly innovative author, whose deep theoretical awareness has long been undervalued; on the other hand, I intend to provide material for further critical investigation on the affinity and difference between Mansfield and Joyce on the notion of epiphany, thereby contributing to the general critical debate on the aesthetics which developed during the first decades of the twentieth century

Vendetta, ambizione, pensiero. Riflessioni sull’Amleto e sul Macbeth
L’articolo parte da una riflessione sullo statuto canonico dell’Amleto e del Macbeth e sulla possibile inibizione di nuove interpretazioni che esso può provocare. Vengono poi evidenziate alcune affinità tra le due tragedie, che fanno sì che esse si prestino a una lettura congiunta. Al centro di entrambe campeggiano personaggi che sono diventati “miti” della modernità. Sono inoltre gli esempi più rappresentativi di due tipologie fondamentali del teatro elisabettiano e giacomiano, la tragedia di vendetta e la tragedia di ambizione, a ben vedere complementari tra loro. Al contempo, l’Amleto e il Macbeth determinano l’esplosione di tali paradigmi, in particolare mettendone a nudo la temporalità paradossale. Infine, in questi drammi viene problematizzato qualunque schema precostituito grazie all’eccezionale ed eccedente capacità di “pensare” dei protagonisti. L’Amleto e il Macbeth sembrano dunque sollecitare una lettura contrastiva e multiprospettica che, in quanto consapevole dei propri limiti, può forse consentire di superare l’impasse da cui le riflessioni proposte hanno preso avvio.The article starts from a reflection on the canonicity of Hamlet and Macbeth and on the possible inhibition of new interpretations this can cause. It then goes on to highlight some similarities between the two tragedies, which make them suitable for a joint reading. At the centre of both we find characters that have become “myths” of modernity. They moreover epitomize two fundamental types of Elizabethan and Jacobean drama, revenge tragedy and ambition tragedy, which are in fact complementary. At the same time, Hamlet and Macbeth explode these paradigms, particularly by exposing their paradoxical temporality. Finally, these plays question any pre-established pattern thanks to their protagonists’ exceptional and exceeding ability to “think”. Hamlet and Macbeth thus seem to call for a contrastive and multi-perspective reading which, aware of its own limitations, may enable us to overcome the impasse mentioned at the beginning
