- W4210365047 abstract " Reviews analysis is the decision to use first-hand interviews with ‘ordinary’ crew members as a primary resource. Eschewing the usual focus on directors, scriptwriters, and producers , the author instead draws on first-hand interviews with location managers, set designers, sound recordists, production secretaries, etc. is rare perspective results in some original and highly revealing insights into contemporary (Italian) production practices. A second strength of the project is that it ‘reaches across disciplinary boundaries to draw on insights from fields as diverse as Italian screen studies, volcanology, animal studies, philosophical ethnology, and acoustic ecology’ (p. ). Past is at her best here, bringing a wide-ranging intellectual enquiry to bear on her insightful and convincing textual analysis of the films themselves. e final, and perhaps most unusual, facet of her approach is the way in which she integrates her own experience and research process into the account, mirroring the imbrication of production practices and representational strategies within her analysis. is makes for a highly provocative and readable account of the way in which Italian cinema has interacted with the natural world and with environmental issues, while making it clear that such an analysis is part of an ethical project which can have a transformative effect on film-makers, audiences, scholars, and readers. e book is thus not only one of the most original and provocative publications on Italian cinema of recent years but it also fulfils its goal of ‘stimulating the kind of creative energy needed to confront contemporary environmental problems, whether in the classroom or far beyond its walls’ (p. ). U K A M-M Fulvio Tomizza: Writing the Trauma of Exile. By M D. (Italian Perspectives, ) Cambridge: Legenda. . xi+ pp. £. ISBN –– ––. ‘A boundary’, wrote Martin Heidegger in , ‘is not that at which something stops but, as the Greeks recognized, the boundary is that from which something begins its presencing.’ In keeping with this dictum, Marianna Deganutti explores the fractured and yet generative histories and memories of the Triestine and Istrian borderlands. rough an original and sensitive analysis of the flourishing literary production of Fulvio Tomizza (–), an unaccountably still little-known Italian author, Deganutti’s volume renders justice to the exilic experience of multilingual, multicultural , multi-ethnic communities of the Italian north-east. e focus is exile, a topic whose literary and critical background, in Dante’s words, ‘fa tremar le vene e i polsi’. e author moves from a broad range of sources, from Said to Brodsky, Naipaul, and many others, to correlate identity, migration, multilingualism, and translation with exile. e Introduction delineates a clear critical framework of exilic experience in Tomizza’s work. Deganutti dely elects to engage, both quantitatively and qualitatively, with a vast and heterogeneous but always pertinent bibliography. e book is framed by two contextual chapters: Chapter , on the history and memory of the Istrian region, and Chapter , on the borderlands, their languages, and trauma. MLR, ., Tomizza’s narratives are coherently approached ‘before exile’, in ‘exilic ri’, and ‘aer exile’. is apportioning is structurally reflected in the chapters which make up the central part of the book. e memorial framework underpinning Tomizza’s exile is further situated, and given meaning, by the author’s original recourse to trauma studies. A further original contribution is the book’s highlighting of influences and overlaps between Tomizza’s writing and contemporary Italian and European authors, with special attention given to the writing of Mitteleuropa. e discussion of Tomizza’s indebtedness to, and overlaps with, the Slovene intellectual and political activist Ivan Cankar is superb. Chapters and arguably stand as the most incisive in the volume. Deganutti’s examination of Tomizza’s literary work through the lens of language, emphasizing, among other things, the tension between language and dialect, multilingualism, code switching, language hybridization, and self-translation, is one of its most original and compelling traits. e focus of Chapter is the novel La ragazza di Petrovia and its unforgettable protagonist Giustina. e analysis here encompasses a substantial body of critical literature on exile, cultural memory, migration, and trauma studies (e.g. by Cathy Caruth, Dominick LaCapra, and others). L’albero dei sogni provides an original reading of mirrors in Tomizza, Pirandello, and..." @default.
