Un giro di Jack” è una danza di onnipotenza che tutti noi abbiamo prima o poi ballato quando la vita era farcita di tematiche universitarie e primi passi nel mondo del lavoro, di primi rapporti stretti creati al di fuori della famiglia, di gioco, divertimento e di indipendenza, sensazioni di maturità sognate mentre dormi con un uomo per più di tre giorni di fila. C’è stato e ci sarà luogo e tempo per giri di vino rosso, ma il serenamente spregiudicato giro di Jack rappresenta il periodo delle prime e ultime volte che non si rivivranno mai più. I rapporti vissuti a 360 gradi, sia in positivo che in negativo, quelle anime che s’incontrano e in alcuni casi non si lasciano mai, quegli amori che hanno senso di esistere solo tra i venti e i trent’anni. Ecco di cosa parla questo libro.

Industrial Literature and Authors

Labor, Factory Utopias, and Testimonial Intent

By: Bianca Rita Cataldi

In recent years, the field of literary studies at the international level has become more involved in the analysis of the so-called industrial literature, a literary genre that focuses on the literary representation of factory work and workers’ alienation. This book engages in the ongoing debate by offering a narratological analysis of Italian industrial novels in particular, while taking into consideration their paratexts and interrogating the possibility of the presence of a testimonial intent in the text. The study reconstructs the connections between visions of factory utopias and Italian industrial literature, starting with an overview of said visions of utopia and how they came into being in Europe following the industrial revolution. It then proceeds by exploring the relationship between the twentieth-century Italian entrepreneur Adriano Olivetti and Italian industrial authors, and the influence that Olivetti’s visions of factory utopia had on these writers and how they perceived themselves as witnesses of factory life and workers’ alienation. In analyzing these texts, and particularly the novels by Paolo Volponi and Ottiero Ottieri, the book focuses on the previously overlooked representation of the self in industrial literature and on how this self expresses the need for testimony.
