Convergences and Comparisons: Alvaro, C. Campo, Betocchi

This monograph provides new insights into correspondences and comparisons that haven¿t been drawn before between three authorial personalities who have significantly marked contemporary literature. In literary historical sense they are situated within the context of Italian modernism and theoretical factors attributable to it, while the enhancement for the research is found in the valorisation of their place in the canon, as well as anticipatory role regarding the tradition. After introducing common premises for the perusal of writings of Alvaro, C. Campo and Betocchi, the thematics is subdivided in three individual sections and studied through analytical approach. Interpretive mechanisms include detailed genre determination because these authors can be brought closer for comparisons, beside from artistic field due to biographical entanglements, from the perspective of poetic subject. The latter manifests itself primarily in lyrical production, but also relates to poetical basis in non-fictional narrative genres (essayistic, travel and epistolary literature).
