L'isola Di Arturo

Серия: "-"

Arturo, il guerresco ragazzo dal nome di una stella, vive in un'isola tra spiagge e scogliere, pago di sogni fantastici. Non si cura di vestiti n&# 233; di cibi.&# 200; stato allevato con latte di capra. La vita per lui&# 232; promessa solo di imprese e di libert&# 224; assoluta. E ora ricorda. Queste sono le sue memorie, dall'idillio solitario alla scoperta della vita: l'amore, l'amicizia, il dolore, la disperazione. Secondo romanzo della Morante dopo Menzogna e sortilegio (1948), L'isola di Arturo conferm&# 242; tutte le qualit&# 224; della scrittrice romana: l'impasto di elementi realistici e fiabeschi, la forte suggestione del linguaggio. Arturo, come Elisa in Menzogna e sortilegio, "si porta addosso la croce di far parte non di un oggi ma di un sempre" .

Morante, Elsa

▪ Italian author
born Aug. 18, 1912, Rome, Italy
died Nov. 25, 1985, Rome
 Italian novelist, short-story writer, and poet known for the epic and mythical quality of her works, which usually centre upon the struggles of the young in coming to terms with the world of adulthood.

      Morante early exhibited literary talent, and, although her formal education remained incomplete, her marriage to the novelist Alberto Moravia (Moravia, Alberto) brought her for a time into association with the leading Italian writers of the day. However, she remained largely outside the Neorealism movement within which many of these writers worked. Her first novel, Menzogna e sortilegio (1948; House of Liars), recounts the complex history of a southern Italian family through the memory and imagination of a young woman. Morante's next novel, L'isola di Arturo (1957; Arturo's Island), examines a boy's growth from childhood dreams to the painful disillusions of adulthood. This novel, for which she won the Strega Prize, is notable for its delicate lyricism and its mingling of realistic detail with an air of unreality; it is often compared to Moravia's Agostino (1944; Two Adolescents), another tale of adolescent initiation.

      The novel La storia (1974; History: A Novel) met with mixed critical reaction, but it achieved commercial success. Set primarily in Rome between 1941 and 1947, its focus is the arduous existence of a simple, half-Jewish elementary school teacher and her young son, Useppe, born after she is raped by a German soldier. The story reaffirms the author's passionately held ideology, which is tinged with anarchism, denies any possibility of humane politics, and, with Useppe's death, apparently excludes any final hope for humanity. Morante's final novel, Aracoeli (1982; Eng. trans. Aracoeli), recounts a trip taken by its troubled protagonist to Spain, where he attempts to recapture his lost childhood and uncover his mother's past. Like History, Aracoeli was not universally acclaimed by critics, but it serves as a summation of many currents in Morante's work.

      Morante also published a volume of short stories, Lo scialle andaluso (1963; “The Andalusian Shawl”); a volume of essays, Il gioco secreto (1941; “The Secret Game”); and two collections of poetry, Alibi (1958) and Il mondo salvato dai ragazzini (1968; “The World Saved by Little Children”). Her collected works were published in 1988–90, and a version of her diary appeared in 1989 as Diario 1938 (“Diary 1938”). Racconti dimenticati (2002; “Forgotten Stories”) is a collection of her early fiction.
