Gender, Narrative and Dissonance in the Modern Italian Novel
Theatre and the Rise of the Italian Novel
The essay discusses the rich and complex relationship that was played out publicly in eighteenth-century Venice between a well-established theatre and a newly emerging indigenous novel. Two of the key figures, Pietro Chiari and Antonio Piazza, had a foot in both camps; their ‘theatre novels’, far from having story lines purloined from plays, were thinly disguised or undisguised narratives about the off-stage rivalries and relationships between th…
Home and happiness in Neera's fiction
Ma, nel XIX secolo, la formazione di una società civile passa anche e forse soprattutto per le stanze della vita domestica
Home and happiness in Neera's fiction
Ma, nel XIX secolo, la formazione di una societa civile passa anche e forse soprattutto per le stanze della vita domestica

Bagatelle, Bamboccerie , and Bordellerie
The essay explores the critical response to the arrival of the eighteenth-century novel in Italy. Although contemporary works of fiction such as Richardson's Pamela and Fielding's Tom Jones were widely available in English and in translation, and gave rise to a number of popular stage adaptations, critics continued to draw on the epic and late-Renaissance literary theory in their discussions of the genre until at least the middle of the century. …

About town
The period after Italian Unification saw a marked increase in the volume of publications, magazines and books intended specifically for a female readership which was made up of girls and married women. It also saw the rise of the professional woman writer and journalist. Drawing on two of the most popular genres, the novel (in particular the domestic novel) and conduct literature, this article examines their representations of the city and urban …
Women Readers and the Novel in Nineteenth-Century Italy
In the second half of the nineteenth century the growing interest shown by painters and their patrons in a more intimist subject matter found expression both in the representation of new themes and settings and in the re-elaboration of established subjects. Included among the second group were paintings of female readers. In religious art there had long been an association between women and books: for example, scenes of the Annunciation often dep…

Dante and the Medieval Other World
The Branding of Women
It's funny about identity. You are because your little dog knows you. Gertrude Stein, Everybody's Autobiography At the beginning of Act II of Trovarsi, the play that Pirandello wrote for Marta Abba in 1932, there occurs an extraordinary episode. Donata, the heroine, is shown examining the bite-marks that her lover Elj gave her when he rescued her in the high seas after their boat capsized. His claim, which is supported by her doctor, is that they…
Carlo Dossi
The short, but singular literary career of the Lombard writer Alberto Carlo Pisani-Dossi (1849–1910) is remarkable for his radical experiments in both the language and the structures of narrative writing. Critical attention was first caught, and then held, by his confident and inventive linguistic liberties, but has shown little interest in his equally innovative approach to form and genre, despite the ample evidence from Dossi's own commentaries…
Italian Feminism and the Novel
Although the recuperation and reintegration of earlier feminist thought and work has now become an established part of feminist practice in this country, access to a broader European experience is still relatively limited. Translations of modem writings are rare enough, while background material, histories and formative texts remain almost non-existent for the English reader (the notable exception to this is material to do with Russia and this is…
