Milk and Blood: Nursing Capitalism in Luigi Pirandello's La balia
In this article, I argue that the notion of consumption and the nutritional-alimentary discourse underlying Luigi Pirandello's classic short-story 'La balia' may suggest a political interpretation of this modernist text. A close analysis of the nursing motif helps to project the story beyond the individual-centred narration of the protagonist's vicissitudes and interpret it as a bitter commentary on the more universal, socio-political, and econom…
Outplaying Kronos' Hunger: Massimo Bontemplelli's Gente NEL Tempo
This essay offers an interpretation of Massimo Bontempelli's “novecentista” novel, Gente nel tempo, by examining and expanding upon the implications of the “modernized” classical Greek myth of Kronos.

Recipes for the Future: Traces of Past Utopias inThe Futurist Cookbook
This essay suggests an interpretation of F. T.

The Language of Passion: Gesture and Melodrama in Niccolo Tommaseo's Fede e bellezza
By the time Tommaseo wrote and then published Fede e bellezza (FB) in 1840, the second term of his novel's title, "bellezza," had become a particularly poignant and layered one. It represented the latest intellectual development and literary interpretation of a central philosophical notion which had (pre-)occupied the Dalmatian writer since his youth and which would continue to do so in subsequent years. 1
