L’atto della nominazione e la dittatura del modello

Intorno a Tutta la vita di Alberto Savinio

Abstract

In Alberto Savinio’s Tutta la vita, and particularly in the stories Il suo nome, Paradiso terrestre, La pianessa and Eònio, the proper name is an emblem of the intersection between reality and myth in the literary creative activity, and it is connected with the cultural and politic thought explained by the author himself in Fine dei modelli. This is a very important theme in his works, analysed by the writer until Alcesti di Samuele.
