Ho da poco iniziato un PhD in letteratura italiana all'Universita' di Leeds: il progetto ha per titolo "The industrial city and the crisis of the self in early XX century Italian literature". Di Tondelli mi sono occupato l'anno scorso, presentando un breve lavoro sul rapporto tra Tondelli e la musica al mio esame di licenza presso la Scuola Normale. Molto, a mio parere, della concezione musicale di Tondelli ha a che fare con il tema della perdita dell'identita' individuale e della conseguente sofferenza spesso non gestibile o individuabile, e le piu' interessanti osservazioni al proposito cadono spesso in contesti che hanno per oggetto proprio la "generazione postmoderna". Di tutto cio' il lavoro da me svolto lascia trapelare appena qualche cenno ma sarei lieto, quando la cosa risultasse di qualche interesse, di lavorare in questo senso e presentare i risultati al Suo seminario. Mi tenga aggiornato e stia bene, Francesco Capello ********************************************************************** To join the list, send the message: join italian-studies YOUR NAME to: [log in to unmask] To send a message to the list, address it to: [log in to unmask] To leave the list, send the message: leave italian-studies to: [log in to unmask] In order to report problems or to contact the list's owners, write to: [log in to unmask] For further information, visit our web site: http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/lists/italian-studies.html
