L-FIL-LET/14 - CRITICAL COMPARATIVE LITERATURE
Period
2 B dal Apr 4, 2022 al Jun 4, 2022.
Learning outcomes
Teaching comparative literature aims at transmitting to the students crucial conceptual intruments and modes of thoughts concerning some important literary themes current in the Western World. By the end of the course the student will master notions and critical methodologies used by the professor in class.
Program
Chance, luck, destiny - concepts with blurred boundaries, anthropological constants and literary themes in every age and place - in the twentieth century have taken on new and particular meanings. After an historical and theoretical premise, the course examines prose works in which these themes are central, starting from Luigi Pirandello, passing through Henry James, Jorge Luis Borges, Dino Buzzati, to the cinema of Woody Allen, TV fiction and the latest forms of storytelling. The path winds on recurring images (the roll of the dice, the doors, the amulet, the survivor, the crystal ball...) and typical situations such as the meeting, the game, the waiting, the divination, the retrospective look at the events
