Utopie egualitarie e riformismo illuminato nella Carestia di Domenico Tempio
17-30Views:61La Carestia del poeta siciliano Domenico Tempio è un poema satirico allegorico che si inserisce nella tradizione del riformismo illuminato meridionale, alimentando l'utopia della pace e dell'egualitarismo sociale. L'articolo analizza alcuni frame dell'opera per cogliere la spinta al rinnovamento della poesia settecentesca, attraverso un uso stilistico del linguaggio poetico che oscilla tra coloriture marcatamente espressioniste e tracce altrettanto visibili di classicismo formale.

Forme della poesia
Views:141L'analisi del testo è un campo di ricerca ampio e ricco. L'analisi linguistica formale dei testi non è diffusa, non certo in Italia, ma può aiutare proficuamente nella lettura e nell'interpretazione. Questo può essere facilmente dimostrato con la poesia. In questo articolo introduco alcuni fondamenti di questo approccio e mostro come si applicano a due poesie per presentare alcuni dei suoi vantaggi.

Traduzioni belles infidèles. Commenti a quelle dei componimenti lubrici di Domenico Tempio
161-182Views:407Belles infidèles is a French expression highlighting a well-known problem in translating from one language to another. This is true especially in the field of literature and particularly in poetry, where the exterior aspects of the words (for example, the harmony of rhymes, the images, the emotional vibrations, the semantic fields, the polysemy, and so on) become substantial and hardly translatable. The essay focuses on some bad translations of some selected verses from the obscene poems by a 18th-century Sicilian dialect poet, Domenico Tempio: they clearly show the translators’ intervention, who took many liberties and betrayed the formulation, the sense and the effect of the original texts. The essay proposes some more faithful translations of them.

Scrivere e descrivere: La pervasività dell’ekphrasis nella poesia di Edoardo Sanguineti
Views:248This paper aims to explore the all-pervasiveness of the technique of ekphrasis within Edoardo Sanguineti’s poetry, from Laborintus (1956) to Varie ed eventuali (2010). The study is conducted looking at six exemplary texts (Laborintus 3 and 7, Reisebilder 14, Cataletto 1, Corollario 43, Mantova 15) belonging to different periods of Sanguineti’s literary career and comparing them with the visual objects that they describe. In this way, the study tries to show the usage of ekphrasis not only as a simple rhetorical device but also as a primary poetical tool. Finally, the article drafts some future ways for further investigation, such as the cataloguing of all the ekphrasises hidden in Edoardo Sanguineti’s poetry, the application of the theoretical results achieved by the international visual studies, and the possibility of connecting Sanguineti’s ekphrasis with the ones used by other Italian contemporary poets.

Maurizio Moro: «Imagine del Salvatore dal Pordenon Pittor famoso dipinta».: Un componimento ritrovato per un dipinto perduto
Views:136In the essay Note sulla tradizione spirituale e religiosa Quondam denounced the prejudice which for a long time excluded from the field of “literature” the experiences of religious poetry of the pre-baroque era. The issue is greater in the field of figurative arts, where sacred poetry and those who dealt with it still find it hard to establish themselves as sources for the knowledge of works and artistic languages. This is the case of the Venetian Maurizio Moro, a canon and scholar who lived between the 16th and 17th centuries, known above all as the author of the commentary verses on Dürer’s Little Passion (Venice, 1612). The essay discusses the author’s composition on the «Imagine del Salvatore, dal Pordenon pittor famoso dipinta». The text, published in 1609 within the Amorosi stimoli dell’anima penitente and still unknown to those who have treated the Friulan painter, bears witness to a work not otherwise known, re-evaluating Moro as a precious source for art history and criticism.
