Venezia, prigione e libertà
Intervista a Emanuela Canepa
Abstract
This interview explores the narrative role of Venice in Emanuela Canepa’s historical novel, focusing on its dual nature as both a setting and a transformative narrative device. The discussion delves into the challenges of historical reconstruction, linguistic authenticity, and power dynamics within the society of the 1920s. Through an analysis of faith, incarceration, and gender dynamics, the interview provides insights into the novel’s central themes of identity, autonomy, and the struggle for self-determination.
