Short forms of narrative and their architecture
Particularly corresponding to the present time, the short forms of narrative by twentieth-century women writers and authors constitute an important chapter in Italian literary history, from the novelle of Deledda and Pirandello to the short stories of Elsa Morante, Beppe Fenoglio and Primo Levi, to the short forms of Alice Ceresa and Giorgio Manganelli and even very recent experiences, such as that of Patrizia Cavalli. The course also aims to investigate their architecture in book form, tracing back the current critical debate.
