The 1960s and 1970s witnessed intense debates over the definition of fascism and the practice of anti-fascism among Italian communist and left-wing intellectuals. This article explores the political problem of how to name fascism, and the related issue of anti-fascist language, by homing in on the writings of poet and critic Franco Fortini – who debated the question of the ‘new fascism’ with Pier Paolo Pasolini – and the multiple efforts by Primo Levi to rethink the meaning of anti-fascism in the face of fascism's capacity to mutate under changing historical and political conditions.
20世纪60年代和70年代，意大利共产主义和左翼知识分子围绕法西斯主义的定义和反法西斯主义的实践展开了激烈的争论。本文探讨了如何命名法西斯主义的政治问题，以及反法西斯语言的相关问题，通过关注诗人兼评论家佛朗哥·福尔蒂尼(Franco Fortini)的作品——他与皮耶·保罗·帕索里尼(Pier Paolo Pasolini)讨论了“新法西斯主义”的问题——以及普里莫·列维(Primo Levi)在面对法西斯主义在不断变化的历史和政治条件下变异的能力时，重新思考反法西斯主义的意义的多重努力。

David Ashford's ‘Variations on a Design Concept’ is extracted from a forthcoming experimental novella, Changeling. Its starting point is the the murders that occurred in August 1914 in Taliesin, the Wisconsin home of Frank Lloyd Wright, before it flows into other historical, trans-generational and contemporary frameworks of reference, stretching from mythology to the Cold War and Brexit.

Natalie Czech's work has explored interfaces between conceptual photography, poetry and everyday objects. In ‘poems’, presented in this issue of CounterText and extracted from a forthcoming work, she presents a lexicon of common computer icons that visually refer to familiar objects while indicating different functionality within computing. The work plays also with semantic slippage and with permutational potential within the captioning provided.

Nathalie Léger returns to Barthes’s Fragments d’un discours amoureux to highlight its continuing appeal. But can it be pinned down? Should the attempt even be made? Léger draws on a life-time of engagement with Barthes to its range of invitations in this book to think through experience and re-connect with the discourse of love. The story of these engagements begins with ones that no longer seem purposeful – the concern with classification and system; before trusting in experience again, including experiencing the manipulations of romance narratives and the search for bite-size ‘truths’. Written in allusive fragments or affective propositions of its own, the piece presents Fragments d’un discours amoureux biographically, autobiographically, speculatively, pleasurably: it’s an invitation to dance in a rhetorical ballet of attachments full of movement and pauses, and the distances between words and people needed to breathe the air of understanding.
Nathalie Léger回到Barthes的Fragments d'un discours amoureux，以突出其持续的吸引力。但它能被钉住吗？是否应该尝试？Léger在本书中利用了与Barthes的终身交往，邀请他通过经验进行思考，并与爱的话语重新联系起来。这些参与的故事始于那些似乎不再有目的的参与——对分类和系统的关注；在再次相信经验之前，包括经历对浪漫叙事的操纵和对小规模“真相”的探索。这首作品以影射片段或情感命题的形式写成，以传记、自传体、推测、愉悦的方式呈现了《fragments d'un discours amoureux》：这是一首邀请人们在充满动作和停顿的依恋的修辞芭蕾舞剧中跳舞的邀请，以及呼吸理解空气所需的词语和人之间的距离。
