The Parody in Elsa Morante’s Novels
Keywords:
Parody, Scandal, Myth, History, Gianni Carchia.
Abstract
This paper analyses the whole fictional work of Elsa Morante, from Menzogna e Sortilegio to Aracoeli, using the concept of parody as a parameter of interpretation, also investigating the keywords of Morante’s poetics (e.g. mistery, ambiguity, scandal). In conducting this analysis, the main theoretical and philosophical framework has been taken from Gianni Carchia’s theory of the novel which has been used to demonstrate the strong and deep connection between myth and history in Morante’s novels.Downloads
