Gli eroi dei romanzi sono spesso diventati eroi nazionali, col compito di rappresentare la comunità tutta all'insegna di un leggendario passato unificante, com'è accaduto a Robin Hood o a d'Artagnan. In Italia, invece, i personaggi letterari si sono sottratti a ogni tentativo di uso iconico e mitizzazione popolare. Eppure tutta la letteratura italiana tra Otto e Novecento è attraversata dalla riflessione sull'eroe e l'eroismo in una prospettiva nazionale. Le candidature non sono certo mancate: da Jacopo Ortis ed Ettore Fieramosca fino al partigiano Johnny e al commissario Montalbano, passando per Pinocchio, Gian Burrasca e Metello. Persino Mattia Pascal e Zeno Cosini. Nessuno di loro, però, è approdato allo statuto di eroe patriottico: perché? Perché l'Italia ha una debole storia nazionale o perché i protagonisti letterari del nostro paese hanno saputo resistere a ogni tentazione simbolica? Più realistici e moderni di quello che si pensa di solito, i personaggi italiani si riveleranno dotati di anticorpi che li hanno preservati da ogni forma di sacralizzazione.

Among the plethora of heroes of different significance (religious, artistic, political, etc.), national archetypes stand out because they represent the outstanding traits of their fellow citizens and at the same time serve as role models for them. How these archetypes are formed in some countries, and what their specific features are, constitutes the starting point for this study. The book then enters a second phase with the narration of their jobs as literary heroes, culminating in a reflection on the possible effects that the archetype may have on the behaviour of workers and employers in the respective country. After the analysis of the five main European countries, the book undertakes a comparative study of other non-European archetypes, where the profiles are quite different.

An exploration of the many depictions of Charlemagne in the Italian tradition of chivalric narratives in verse and prose. Chivalric tales and narratives concerning Charlemagne were composed and circulated in Italy from the early fourteenth to the mid-sixteenth century (and indeed subsequently flourished in forms of popular theatre which continue today). But are they history or fiction? Myth or fact? Cultural memory or deliberate appropriation? Elite culture or popular entertainment? Oral or written, performed or read? This book explores the many depictions of the Emperor in the Italian tradition of chivalric narratives in verse and prose. Beginning in the age of Dante with the earliest tales composed for Italians in the hybrid language of Franco-Italian, which draw inspiration from the French tradition of Charlemagne narratives, the volume considers the compositions of anonymous reciters of cantari and the prose versions of the Florentine Andrea da Barberino, before discussing the major literary contributions to the genre by Luigi Pulci, Matteo Maria Boiardo and Ludovico Ariosto. The focus throughout is on the ways in which the portrait of Charlemagne, seen as both Emperor and King of France, is persistently ambiguous, affected by the contemporary political situation and historical events such as invasion and warfare. He emerges through these texts in myriad guises, from positive and admirable to negative and despised.

The essays within Beyond Catholicism trace the interconnections of belief, heresy, and mysticism in Italian culture from the Middle Ages to today. In particular, they explore how religious discourse has unfolded within Italian culture in the context of shifting paradigms of rationality, authority, time, good and evil, and human collectivities.

What is Italian pop culture? This volume provides an answer to this question, offering an insight into some of the most recent and interesting developments in the field of pop culture. The reader will find essays on a variety of topics including literature, theater, music, social media, comics, politics, and even Christmas. Each contribution here places stress on the popular. The main reference points guiding the chapters are, in fact, the pioneering works by Antonio Gramsci and Umberto Eco. The result is, therefore, a portrait of a country where mass participation in cultural events always accompanies some form of reflection on the national identity and other related issues. Historians and sociologists, as well as musicologists and philosophers (in addition to pop culture aficionados), will find the text an engaging and indispensable read.

Investigating the interrelationships between orality and writing in elite and popular textual culture in early modern Italy, this volume shows how the spoken or sung word on the one hand, and manuscript or print on the other hand, could have interdependent or complementary roles to play in the creation and circulation of texts. The first part of the book centres on performances, ranging from realizations of written texts to improvisations or semi-improvisations that might draw on written sources and might later be committed to paper. Case studies examine the poems sung in the piazza that narrated contemporary warfare, commedia dell'arte scenarios, and the performative representation of the diverse spoken languages of Italy. The second group of essays studies the influence of speech on the written word and reveals that, as fourteenth-century Tuscan became accepted as a literary standard, contemporary non-standard spoken languages were seen to possess an immediacy that made them an effective resource within certain kinds of written communication. The third part considers the roles of orality in the worlds of the learned and of learning. The book as a whole demonstrates that the borderline between orality and writing was highly permeable and that the culture of the period, with its continued reliance on orality alongside writing, was often hybrid in nature.

«La critica letteraria è in via di sparizione sia perché gran parte dell’attuale letteratura non è più un oggetto che abbia interesse critico, sia perché gli studiosi non è detto che siano lettori interessati a formulare giudizi.» Queste righe di Alfonso Berardinelli potrebbero suonare come un addio alla critica letteraria. E in effetti sembrano spiegare perché in Giornalismo culturale la critica letteraria sia in netta minoranza. Dal 2013 al 2020, periodo nel quale sono stati scritti gli articoli qui raccolti, l’oggetto privilegiato non è la letteratura, ma la cultura nel suo insieme: le idee correnti o dominanti, le élite intellettuali, i linguaggi, le istituzioni, le mode culturali, i luoghi comuni del discorso politico e gli effetti della rete sulla vita di tutti.Eppure quello di Berardinelli è un giornalismo culturale anomalo e singolarmente enciclopedico. È soprattutto analisi del conformismo sociale, delle sue ragioni e delle forme in cui si manifesta. Ed è contraddistinto da una grande mobilità critica a partire dalla grande varietà di occasioni, spunti e casi offerti dall’attualità e dalla cronaca – cui fa da corrispettivo una grande varietà di stili, che spaziano dalla dialettica argomentativa all’ironia distanziante alla vera e propria satira culturale. Una satira tanto più necessaria da quando arti, scienze, filosofia e letteratura sono viste come valori in sé, attività autogarantite e indiscutibili per principio, al punto da far sembrare scorretta o inconcepibile qualunque valutazione selettiva e qualitativa che orienti in una cultura di massa in continua espansione e da cui gli stessi intellettuali sono stati conquistati, ipnotizzati e disarmati.Per Berardinelli il giornalismo culturale è un genere letterario nel quale esprimersi pienamente, in prima persona, con le proprie insofferenze e idiosincrasie, praticato attraverso la critica dei linguaggi specializzati e gergali a partire dalla lingua comune e da un’ottica che non trascura mai di mettere a confronto le parole e le cose, le maschere culturali e le realtà di fatto, per quanto ambigue e sfuggenti siano. Un punto di vista inconsueto sul reale, attraverso cui scoprire verità prima celate.

This book explores the relationship between the sciences of representation and the strategy of landscape valorisation. The topic is connected to the theme of the image of the city, which is extended to the territory scale and applied to case studies in Italy’s Umbria region, where the goal is to strike a dynamic balance between cultural heritage and nature. The studies demonstrate how landscape represents an interpretive process of finding meaning, a product of the relationships between mankind and the places in which it lives. The work proceeds from the assumption that it is possible to describe these connections between environment, territory and landscape by applying the Vitruvian triad, composed of Firmitas (solidity), Utilitas (utility) and Venustas(beauty). The environment, the sum of the conditions that influence all life, represents the place’s solidity, because it guarantees its survival. In turn, territory is connected to utility, and through its etymological meaning is linked to possession, to a domain; while landscape, as an “area perceived by people”, expresses the search for beauty in a given place, the process of critically interpreting a vision.
