Narrating Covid and captivity in Italy
Italy's prison overcrowding became world news in early March 2020, when the COVID-19 outbreak sparked riots in prisons across the country, causing the death of 13 inmates. As a crisis narrative, the COVID-19 pandemic made visible the deep, ongoing crisis of Italy's prison system and disclosed new conditions for critical thought on the restorative potential of the penitentiary system. This article first describes the impact of COVID-19 on Adriano …
Postsecular Italy
Religion has not been displaced by the long process of secularization. Rather, as Clodagh Brook and others have argued, it has become one of the most visible and complex fault lines of the twenty-first century. Today, religious and secular discourses are entangled with each other inside a public sphere in which secular voices mingle and clash with voices from multiple faiths. This entanglement is now a significant aspect of contemporary Italian c…

Eva e Avrai i miei occhi
Ispirati dalla complementarietà tra Nigredo e Olivia, due personaggi a metà che hanno bisogno degli occhi dell’uno e dell’empatia dell’altra per ricomporre i mosaici di cui sono fatti, abbiamo ideato questo contributo su Avrai i miei occhi di Nicoletta Vallorani come una serie di conversation pieces, non a caso il titolo di uno dei capitoli del romanzo. Un dialogo non solo tra di noi, e tra le nostre competenze su noir, (micro)storia, postmoderno…
Robledo o la “bufala” dei ghost class heroes
Il romanzo Robledo di Daniele Zito è costruito come un’edizione postuma dei “quaderni” del giornalista Michele Robledo che raccolgono la sua investigazione sull’organizzazione clandestina del Lavoro Per il Lavoro (LPL) i cui membri compiono il loro “percorso di liberazione” suicidandosi sul posto di lavoro. Secondo Daniele Zito, autore della “Postfazione”, Robledo ha condotto l’indagine sul lavoro non salariato attraverso la “falsificazione”. In …
Quando lo ‘scandalo’ diventa provocazione. Il postsecolare e il teatro iconoclasta di Romeo Castellucci
When ‘scandal’ becomes provocation The postsecular and Romeo Castellucci’s theatre of iconoclasmRomeo Castellucci’s performance On the Concept of the Face Regarding the Son of God has led to a series of violent protests coordinated by Catholic groups in France (Paris 2011, Le Mans 2018) and Italy (Milan 2012) and has been judged as being blasphemous and ‘Christianophobic'. Castellucci in the media has defended his piece using biblical terms and a…
Creative urbanity. An Italian middle class in the shade of revitalization
South Africa or Germany after the Second World War?Moreover, it is problematic when the author refers to state crime in Italy where 'the law has played a constitutive role in crimes against humanity' (pp.8-9), or refers to Mafia criminality in terms of 'state-sanctioned terror' (p.131).Mourning and reconciliation are central themes in the theory of transitional justice, and are recurrent themes throughout the book.Yet, the theoretical framework h…
Raccontare la giustizia
Dalle varie riflessioni critiche sul rapporto tra letteratura e giustizia e tra narrazione e legge si può dedurre che alla letteratura venga attribuita la facoltà di “fare giustizia” e alla legge il potenziale di produrre delle storie. Anche se le opinioni divergono sull’effettivo valore trasformativo della letteratura di fronte alla legge, nel panorama italiano sembra prevalere l’idea che la letteratura possa offrire uno strumento conoscitivo pe…
Immunity and Community in Italian War Novels Set in Afghanistan
The concept of immunity as developed by Roberto Esposito is complementary with the category of community and contrasts the notion of security with that of external contamination. In this article, the logic of immunity is applied to two 2012 Italian war novels set in Afghanistan, namely Melania Mazzucco's "Limbo" and Paolo Giordano's "The Human Body". In these novels, the space of the Forward Operating Base's so-called "security bubble" represents…
Introduction
This introduction critically addresses the historical development of operaismo/autonomism into “postautonomist” thinking. First, it argues that the very history of postautonomism allows for criticizing the notion of the “history” (or lack thereof) of theorists associated with postautonomist Marxism, such as Antonio Negri. It argues that the “all-or-nothing” characteristic of autonomism lives on in postautonomist theory's denial of mediation (Negr…
Post-Autonomia
Introduction
In this special section of The Italianist, we focus on the fictional rewritings of Italian history on television in the period of the Second Republic, paying particular attention to the format of the miniserie, usually a three-hour (two-episode) long series which in Italy is associated with prestige, high production values and craftsmanship, making history not only attractive for the beholder, but also a commercial success

Narrare le forze dell'ordine dopo Genova 2001
La violenza esercitata durante il G8 a Genova sui corpi dei manifestanti, risultata nella morte di Carlo Giuliani e nel pestaggio delle persone presenti nella Scuola Diaz e nella caserma di Bolzaneto, è stata oggetto di condanne morali e di sentenze legali ancora in corso. L'eccezione creatasi nella tutela dei diritti umani ha fatto presumere una svolta nel funzionamento della democrazia e delle forze dell'ordine verso una politica autoritaria, s…
