Ancora la mafia e la Spagna Realtà e finzione nella costruzione sociale del male
No full textThe Author focuses on literary construction of Mafia's Myth; from the Spanish origin in Cervantes to the "setta" of Beati Paoli and the Invention of Tradition of Cosa Nostra in 20th Century. The article demonstrates that reality and fiction are part of a unique strategy of social construction of Consensus and Legitimacy.L'articolo si concentra sulla costruzione narrativa del fenomeno mafioso a partire dai primi anni del'Unità d'Italia e sul nesso tra tradizione spagnola delle sette e sue traduzioni italiane. L'autore ripercorre, con esempi inediti, il nesso tra rappresentazione dei miti mafiosi - tra questi quello della setta dei Beati Paoli - e il modificarsi del fenomeno mafioso e delle sue manifestazioni, fino al mito moderno dell'onore in "Cosa Nostra" e alle forme di consenso e legittimazione ad esso connesse.

Trasformazioni discorsive e identità sociali: il caso dei Lazzari
No full textForeign visitors to Naples in the 18th Century gave accounts of a certain kind of destitute homeless population termed as «lazzari». Originally portrayed as the unruly and dangerous scum of the city’s lowlife, the lazzari undergo a transformation and are subsequently viewed as the prototype for a particular Mediterranean identity: folk who get along with little yet get the best out of life. In reviewing the various changes of outlook that in time led to the crystallisation of the «lazzaro» stereotype, the author attempts to demonstrate how the lazzari or lazzaroni cannot be taken as representing a specific social class that was twice seen to play a political role (in 1647-48 and in 1789), but are rather an expression of a political tradition that is responsible for a number of «social» arguments and representations that finally end up creating representations and «social» subjects.[...
Unwriting the Author: Affect and Authorship in Macedonio Fernández, Felisberto Hernández, and Clarice Lispector
No full textThis dissertation offers a new approach to the 20th century Latin American prose writers Macedonio Fernández (Argentina, 1874-1952), Felisberto Hernández (Uruguay, 1902-1964), and Clarice Lispector (Brazil, 1920-1977). My approach is based on the study of affect, understood as an examination of the textual representation of mental and emotional states. An affect-oriented perspective reveals that these authors represent a unique reaction to the avant-garde cultural movements of early 20th century Latin America, one that is manifested in the image of the artist that they present in their work. The Latin American avant-gardes portrayed artists as privileged individuals privy to vivid, extreme sensations and perceptions, whereas, in the work of Fernández, Hernández, and Lispector, the artist’s feelings are unfocused and his or her perceptive powers are dulled. This creates an image of a decentered artist who is mired in ambivalence—a vague, uneasy affective state that is expressed most notably in the inattentiveness with which the artist approaches the creative process. This phenomenon—a combination of both affective and attentional decentering—marks a critical moment in the development of the figure of the artist in Latin American literature, moving away from the heroic artist portrayed by the avant-garde (inherited from romanticism and Spanish American modernismo) and anticipating the "death of the author" so prevalent in the Latin American "Boom.
