Quaderni del ' 900. 5. 2005

Quaderni del '900 is a collection of articles on modern Italian literature. Each issue is devoted to one particular author's work or to a literary or artistic theme of the twentieth century culture.
Stefano Giovanardi has for a long time been involved in researches about modern literary production and will participate in the program as editor.
Each issue, on the basis of the chosen author or theme, has its own editorial committee, made up of highly qualified academic debate and the opportunity for research for Italian and European scholars alike.
The first issues are dedicated to the most important literary authors of the twentieth century: Pasolini, Gadda, Montale, Svevo and Pirandello.
Less well known but equally important authors will also be given a coverage, while one section is dedicated to studies in comparative literature, in order to explore or emphasize the connection between Italian and other literatures.
Each issue is rounded off by a concise and up-to-date bibliography.
