Abstract

The essay deals with most of the prose of Cesare Pavese (Paesi tuoi, Feria d’agosto, La luna e i falò, Il mestiere di vivere) trying to find the dantian trace in the Italian writer’s literature. Both the expressiveness of the best texts of Pavese and the hermeneutic richness of his work are in part indebted to the allegoric and symbolic tragic passages, whose original «source» leads to Dante Alighieri.
