Logiche della diffrazione: le soglie testuali del Giovanni Episcopo

Abstract

The short novel Giovanni Episcopo represents an exception in d’Annunzio’s fictional production. The beginning and the end of this work are particularly relevant for their innovative technique that points out a deep authorial engagement in literary experimentation. Critics discussed the innovative attitude of Giovanni Episcopo and its importance for a complete understanding of d’Annunzio’s production. In this article we are going to discuss this work analysing its textual thresholds to demonstrate its relevance for the authorial searching of new expressive ways.
