Mediterranean Studies: Beauty and Mystery - Paperback

by Antonio Carlo Vitti (Editor), Anthony Julian Tamburri (Editor)

This collection ranges from encounters, clashes, and unexpected synergies between North and South in the works of Vincenzo Consolo, Fabrizio Ramondino, Joseph Tusiani, and Elio Vittorini. And in the world of visuality one finds analyses of aesthetic articulations as films such as The Godfather, Il primo amore, and I pioneri to, in addition, the unexpected success of the animated film Luca. In addition, discourses on the Mediterranean as a phenomenon vital that further underlies concepts of identity and representation are articulated from both folkloric and existential.
