Authorial Echoes: Textuality and Self-Plagiarism in the Narrative of Luigi Pirandello
by Catherine O'Rawe
Luigi Pirandello is best known for his experimental plays, but his narrative production has not enjoyed the same degree of critical attention. O'Rawe's study represents the first major reassessment of this output, including the 'realist' novels, the historical novel I vecchi e i giovani (1909) and the autobiographical Suo marito (1911). The book identifies in Pirandello a practice of 'self-plagiarism' - constant rewriting and ...

Jacques Derrida and the Institution of French Philosophy
by Vivienne Orchard
Jacques Derrida (1930-2004) was unquestionably one of the most celebrated and reviled French thinkers of the last thirty years. Outside France his influence in comparative literature circles, through deconstruction and other ideas, has been so profound that his personal role as a leader of contemporary French philosophy has been almost overlooked. Perhaps because there is no equivalent in English-speaking countries to the timetabling of ...

Reading Games in the Greek Novel
by Eleni Papargyriou
How is play constituent in the formation of the Greek modernist novel? Reflecting competition with European and North American models as well as internal antagonism with more established literary genres in Greece, the novel after the 1930s employed playfulness as a means to demonstrate or even perform its novelty. Innovations unexpectedly came from the Greek periphery rather than Athens, and the Greek novel swiftly exchanged a passively ...

Poetry and the Realm of the Public Intellectual: The Alternative Destinies of Gabriela Mistral, Celia Meireles, and Rosario Castellanos
by Karen Pena
Gabriela Mistral, Cecília Meireles, and Rosario Castellanos were three of the most important Latin American women writers of the 20th century. Prolific, contentious, and widely read and discussed from Spanish America to Brazil, they pushed the boundaries of what it meant to be women poets from the 1920s to the 1970s. Karen Peña explores how these three writers used poetry to oppose patriarchal discourse on topics ranging from ...

Portuguese Modernisms: Multiple Perspectives on Literature and the Visual Arts
edited by Steffen Dix and Jerónimo Pizarro
For a more encompassing and stimulating picture of Modernism seen as a movement of the 20th century, a broad spectrum of work across many countries we must explore its diversity. Portuguese Modernism manifested itself both in visual art and in literature, and made a vigorous contribution to this time of profound cultural change. Indeed, the sociocultural transformations that marked the early 20th century in Portugal are still current. This ...
