dc.description.abstract	The article studies the recurrent image of the hand in Il piacere, the first d’Annunzio’s work where the theme, appearing in his earlier works, takes on a central role. The essay shows how the author dwells on gestures and on hands because, referring to Leonardo’s theories and to the symbolist poetics of the end of the century, they would be the external manifestation of an individual’s character. The representation of the hand will be constant in d’Annunzio’s prose and poetry, where the chiromancer author relies on hand gestures to better represent the complicated psychological traits of his characters.

abstract

The article studies the recurrent image of the hand in Il piacere, the first d’Annunzio’s work where the theme, appearing in his earlier works, takes on a central role. The essay shows how the author dwells on gestures and on hands because, referring to Leonardo’s theories and to the symbolist poetics of the end of the century, they would be the external manifestation of an individual’s character. The representation of the hand will be constant in d’Annunzio’s prose and poetry, where the chiromancer author relies on hand gestures to better represent the complicated psychological traits of his characters.
