Course title: The testimonial narrative between truth and invention. "The Confessions of an Italian": historical novel and training novel The course aims to investigate what happens in Italy after the Manzoni experience and the solutions adopted to respond to the crisis of the models. In particular, through the analysis of the “Confessions”, we intend to propose a reflection on the characters of the historical novel and of the training novel, both originally present in this text, the modern forefather of testimonial narration.
