http://www.glbtq.com/literature/italian_lit.html

Extractions: page: Italy figures large in the Western homoerotic imagination: The novels of Henry James, E. M. Forster, Thomas Mann, and more recently Edmund White testify to the persuasive romance of Italy as a favored location for the gay writer. External perceptions of Italy, however, continue to oscillate between two contrasting mythical poles. It is either seen as the prehistoric land of sexually available nymphs and shepherds or is condemned to remain the cenotaph of high culture in which homosexual aesthetes can vent their artistic sensibility. Sponsor Message. Both versions have probably played a part in the varied constructions of gay identity but say little about the historical realities and cultural representations of homosexuality in Italy itself. The Problems in Discovering a Homosexual Tradition The discussion of homosexuality in Italy is complicated also because it is difficult to view the peninsula as a single historical or geographical unit before Unification in 1870, and even today Italy is marked by enormous social and cultural diversity.
Facts, Fictions, Fakes: Italian Literature In The 1970s - Jennifer Burns

Extractions: Jennifer Burns University of Warwick Abstract PDF version for downloading Footnotes The 1970s are problematic years in the history of the Italian Republic, in the sense both of contemporary experience and of retrospective analysis of them. The decade can be said to have begun in late 1969, following the 'hot autumn' ('autunno caldo') of demonstrations by industrial workers throughout Italy (but concentrated in the industrial north). This surge in popular left-wing militancy prompted extreme right-wing elements within the government and the military to take covert action to turn public opinion against the left. This was the 'strategy of tension' ('strategia della tensione'), which aimed to exacerbate instability in the political climate by committing acts of public violence which might be passed off as the work of left-wing activists, so paving the way for the imposition of military rule. The first move was a bomb detonated in a bank in Piazza Fontana in central Milan on 12th December 1969, killing sixteen people. A left-wing activist was arrested and died during the police investigation: a sequence of events dramatized in Dario Fo's Accidental Death of an Anarchist Left-wing extremist activity was linked with various protest movements arising from the demonstrations of the late 1960s. These are crudely divisible into three categories: the students' movement, which had reached one climax in 1968, but, after a period of pronounced and disillusioned anti-climax, gained momentum again in 1977; and the workers' movement, which, after the flashpoint of 1969, continued to exert pressure on management and on the government until 1980, when FIAT management's defeat of the unions signalled the end of an era. The women's movement was not linked with terrorism, and was the most active and growing of the three areas of protest in the 1970s, having effects both at local level (e.g. consciousness-raising groups) and national (legislation on divorce, abortion, equal rights in the workplace).

http://www.virtualitalia.com/language/literature_history5.shtml

Extractions: The Futurist movement proclaimed vast change for all the arts and even proposed new life-styles and a new philosophy. In the general irrationalism of the early 20th century, the Futurists sought to be the voice of the dynamism of the modern world, praising the new machine age and glorifying - in varying degrees of velleity - irrational energy, immediate and aggressive energy, violence, heroism and war. The Futurist writers (Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, Corrado Govoni, Giovanni Papini, Aldo Palazzeschi) searched for fresh modes of expression that led them to a new analysis of language, involving a rejection of syntax, with the aim of expressing the "nowness" of the workings of the psyche through analogy and suggestion. Luigi Pirandello (1867-1936) The works of Luigi Pirandello (Nobel Prize for Literature in 1934) originated on the fringes of Realism but soon took on their own identity by their bitter and paradoxically ironic view of life. Pirandello focussed on the individual, his anxieties and his desperate attempts to live, to be someone, which always go unsatisfied and finish in bizarre, often insane gestures. In an indecipherable universe all appears relative, including the individual, whose discovery of this emptiness and the insignificance of existence is at the heart of Pirandello's novels ( Uno, Nessuno, Centomila

out of the dark a quick history of italian literature By Roberto Simmarano. The origins of italian literature The rise of a literature
http://www.virtualitalia.com/language/literature_history1.shtml

Extractions: The rise of a literature, both written and spoken, in the vernacular began in the 13th century; a period of great political and civil revival in the Italian cities and a lively renaissance in art and culture after the difficult centuries following barbarian domination. There were a great number of trends in 13th-century literature: religious poetry (which thrived in Umbria partly as a result of the activity of Saint Francis, especially with the work of Jacopone da Todi); poetry made popular by the French jongleurs; the comic-satirical poetry of Cecco Angiolieri ; chivalric literature (the chansons de geste derived from the French); didactic and moralistic prose in which Brunetto Latini was prominent, and, the most widespread, love poetry. The Sicilian and Tuscan poets The first Italian poetry written with literary pretensions emerged, and flourished in Sicily at the Court of the Emperor Frederick II, starting from around 1220 and inspired by the Provencal love lyrics. The poets of the Sicilian school (Guido delle Colonne, Pier dela Vigna, Cielo Dalcamo) treated their single theme of love according to the courtly model. In this way a poetic tradition was begun in which the vernacular Italian was increasingly cleansed of dialectical excess. Later this trend spread to central Italy, especially Tuscany where the poets (Chiaro Davanzati, Compiuta Donzella) expanded and enriched the Sicilian lyric by confronting moral and political themes which reflected the ideals of Communal life.

http://www.italianculture.net/english/literature.html

Extractions: Italian Literature The Cantico delle Creature (Song of All Creatures) written by St. Francis of Assisi in 1225 is the earliest known literary work written in the Italian language. In the XIVth cent. lived and worked three of the greatest figures in Italian literature: Dante Petrarch and Boccaccio , father of the novel, whose Decameron is a mirror of merchant-class life of the times and characterises single individuals by focussing on the things they do; this work became a genre model for centuries that followed. In the XVth and XVth cents. poems of chivalry were much in vogue, comprising epic tales of heroic deeds in faraway times: Torquato Tasso in his Gerusalemme Liberata Jerusalem Freed ) of 1575 revived the genre into a veritable masterpiece of its kind. Treatises also abounded during these two centuries and in his Principe The Prince ) of 1513 describes this role figure in a realistic manner: his political merits are his strong point, along with cynicism and resolution. Machiavelli is famed for paving the way towards politics as a separate branch of learning conceived of as a skill to be acquired for solving practical problems. The XVIIIth cent. saw the reform of the theatre with
