«Ne è venuto fuori uno Sciascia sottratto all’etichetta di superficialità giornalistica cui ancora, non di rado, lo si riconduce: quella dell’illuminismo. Nella convinzione, credo suffragata qui da una vasta mole di documenti, che gli stessi indici di razionalità e laicità della sua opera possano e debbano essere fortemente problematizzati. Per uno scrittore che fu profondamente suggestionato dai meccanismi inquisitoriali del Potere, dalla sua natura costitutivamente controriformistica: e che, sotto le rigorosissime arcate della sua ipotassi, sotto la limpida architettura della sua prosa, mi s’è rivelato come lo scrittore d’un suggestivo barocco mentale. Per non dire della questione del realismo, che lo ossessionò nelle vesti di lettore e interprete dei suoi conterranei, come perlustratore della «sicilitudine»: ed in effetti, scrittore della realtà quale fu, si trovò a sostenere, soprattutto negli anni ultimi, che la realtà può essere generata dalla letteratura, e che dalla letteratura acquisti il suo sigillo di verità».

"Una storia semplice" è una storia complicatissima, un giallo siciliano, con sfondo di mafia e droga. Eppure mai – ed è un vero tour de force – l’autore si trova costretto a nominare sia l’una sia l’altra parola. Tutto comincia con una telefonata alla polizia, con un messaggio troncato, con un apparente suicidio. E subito, come se assistessimo alla crescita accelerata di un fiore, la storia si espande, si dilata, si aggroviglia, senza lasciarci neppure l’opportunità di riflettere. Davanti alla proliferazione dei fatti, non solo noi lettori ma anche l’unico personaggio che nel romanzo ricerca la verità, un brigadiere, siamo chiamati a far agire nel tempo minimo i nostri riflessi – un tempo che può ridursi, come in una memorabile scena del romanzo, a una frazione di secondo. È forse questo l’estremo azzardo concesso a chi vuole «ancora una volta scandagliare scrupolosamente le possibilità che forse ancora restano alla giustizia».

This study focuses on the narrative form which figured prominently in Sciascia's literary production in the 1970s and 1980s, that is, inchiesta, the non-fiction investigative essay, based principally on Manzoni's Storia della colonna infame [The Column of Infamy]. In his inchieste Sciascia investigates episodes in history, from the time of the Inquisition through to his own contemporary times, where intolerance and injustice outmatch human weakness and fear. This study considers Sciascia's commingling of detective and investigative writing, and his attempts at historiography. One striking feature of his narrative technique is his reliance on literature to interpret the past.

Sciascia frequently alludes to French authors, and is often taken to have a close relationship with French literature in general. However, academic critics have never given this important relationship comprehensive and detailed examination. This book focuses on the most relevant French writers. For the majority, attention falls on two complementary areas: the opinions that Sciascia expresses about the writer in his essays; and intertextual allusions to the writer in Sciascia's fiction. These allusions often shift the meaning of the host text or markedly increase its impact. This book works on the assumption that, in order to analyse these effects fully, a careful reading of the relevant French texts is needed. This exploration leads to a reappraisal of Sciascia's relations both with particular French authors and also with French literature generally.

The essays in this collection are based on papers given at a conference on detective fiction in European culture, held at the University of Exeter in September 1997. The range of topics covered is designed to show not only the presence and variety of narratives of detection across different European countries and their different media (although there is a predictable emphasis on the novel). It also illustrates the fertility of the genre, its openness to a spectrum of readings with different emphases, formal as well as thematic. Approaches to detective fiction have often tended to confine them-selves to ‘symptomatic’ interpretation, where details of the fictional world represented are used to diagnose a specific set of social preoccupations and priorities operative at the time of writing. Such approaches can yield valuable insights. Nonetheless there is a risk of limiting the value of the genre as a whole solely to its role as a mirror held up to society. In this perspective, issues of structure and style are sidelined, or, if addressed, are praised to the extent that they approach invisibility — concision, spareness, realism are the qualities singled out for praise. The genre also gives much scope for formal innovation — and indeed has often attracted already established ‘mainstream’ writers and filmmakers for just this reason. The eclectic diversity of the detective narratives considered in this volume reveal the malleability of the traditional constraints of the genre. The essays bear rich testimony to the value of considering the interplay of thematic and structural issues, even in the most apparently unselfconscious and popular (or populist) forms of narrative. The patterns of reassurance, the triumph of intellect and the ordered, rational world ‘of old’ are now challenged by the need to foreground the problems, ambiguities and uncertainties of the self and of society. The plurality of meanings and the antithetical imperatives explored in these detective narratives confirm that the most recent forms of the genre are not mere palimpsests of their ‘golden age’ precursors. The subversion of traditional expectations and the implementation of diverse stylistic devices take the genre beyond mere homage and pastiche. The role of the reader/spectator and critic in conferring meaning is a crucial one.

The Sicilian Mafia, or Cosa Nostra, is one of the most intriguing criminal phenomena in the world. It is an unparalleled organised criminal grouping that over almost two centuries has been able not only to successfully permeate licit and illicit economy, politics and civil society, but also to influence and exercise authoritative power over both the underworld and the upper-world. This criminal phenomenon has been a captivating conundrum for scholars of different disciplines who have tried to explain with various paradigms the reasons behind the emergence and consolidation of the mafia. Challenging the Mafia Mystique provides an analysis of the changes the Sicilian mafia has undergone, from legitimisation to denunciation. Rino Coluccello highlights how, from the very emergence of the organised criminal groups in Sicily, a culture existed that was protective and tolerant of the mafia. He argues that the various conceptualisations of the mafia that dominated the public and scientific debate in the nineteenth and more than half of the twentieth century created a mystique, which legitimised the mafia and contributed to their success. This book will be of great interest to scholars and students of organised crime, Italian politics and Italian literature.
