Goliarda Sapienza in ContextAuthor :

Published : Thursday 2 June 2016
Description
The present edited collection of essays on the Sicilian author Goliarda Sapienza includes contributions from established and emerging scholars working in the field of contemporary womens writing. Essays in this volume examine Sapienza through multiple perspectives, taking into account the articulation of subjectivity through autobiographical writing and the complex representation of gender and sexual identities. Also considered here is Sapienzas oblique position within the Italian literary canon, with contributions moving beyond isolated textual analyses whilst attempting to situate the authors works within a framework of intertextual and contextual cultural references. Exploring the fertile network of explicit and implicit intersections with Italian and European literature (English and French in particular), as well as with Western philosophical thought in which Sapienzas texts are embedded, this volume will provide an overdue contribution to the belated appraisal of an author whose due recognition is, in Cesare Garbolis words, only a matter of time: "Time will work in favour of Goliarda Sapienzas works. And this is not a wish; it is a certainty."
