Brossura. Condition: new. Borgomanero, 2015; br., pp. 222, cm 14x21.(Perle. Narrativa). Lungo le strade di Dublino e della sua Baia si dipanano e si incrociano le vicende, le peripezie e le divagazioni di personaggi d'ogni specie. Quattro di loro, in particolare - l'ultimo superstite della stirpe dei veri perdigiorno, una giovane trentenne non proprio convinta di laurearsi e sposarsi, un'amica fedele rinata al volante di una vecchia Mini e un asino unico nel suo genere piovuto da chissà dove - vivono il tempo non come una condanna ma come un'occasione di libertà e di (imprevedibili) scoperte, alla faccia di dogmi, convenzioni e (pseudo)valori che imbrigliano la nostra umanità. Una parodica e irriverente odissea in salsa irlandese, piena di spunti comici, che celebra il fascino inquietante dell'eterna digressione e la potenza eretica della finzione letteraria. Libro.

Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Beginning with a critical reappraisal of the notion of "fairy tale" and extending it to include categories and genres which are in common usage in folklore and in literary studies, this book throws light on the general processes involved in storytelling. It illuminates the fundamental ways in which a culture is formed, while highlighting important features of the Irish narrative tradition, in all its wealth and variety and in its connections with the mythical and historical events of Ireland. The Irish Fairy Tale argues that the fairy tale is a kind of "neutral zone," a place of transition as well as a meeting place for popular beliefs and individual creativity, oral tradition and literary works, historical sources and imaginary reconstructions, and for contrasting and converging views of the world, which altogether allow for a deeper and more sophisticated understanding of reality. The book focuses on stories by Yeats and Stephens, whose approach to the subject marks the culmination of a long tradition of attempts at linking past and present and of bridging the gap between what appear to be contradictory facets of a single culture. This leads to a comparative study of Joyce's Dubliners, which illustrates the universal and exemplary nature of the notion of fairy tale put forward in the work.

Brossura. Condition: new. Bari, 2021; br., pp. 160. Il lago di Varano, con il sottile istmo che lo separa dal mare e i cinque paesi che gli fanno corona (Ischitella, Cagnano Varano, Carpino, Rodi Garganico, Vico del Gargano), non è solo un suggestivo elemento del paesaggio garganico; è anche il protagonista di una tradizione narrativa che qui, per la prima volta, viene esaminata in tutti i suoi aspetti. Si tratta di una leggenda eziologica, ovvero di un racconto che spiega le origini di un luogo o le cause di un fenomeno. Mescolando storia, mito e credenze popolari, questa leggenda narra un evento memorabile, la scomparsa di un'antica e ricca città, Uria (biblicamente punita con un diluvio per i peccati dei suoi abitanti), e la conseguente origine del lago, dei paesi circumlacuali e del santuario dell'Annunziata. È quest'ultimo che, fin dal nome, ci riporta all'umile ma portentosa protagonista della leggenda, Nunzia. È lei la figura chiave, unica superstite di un passato sommerso dal lago e (ri)fondatrice di una storia e di un mondo nuovi, simboleggiati dal Crocifisso venerato nel santuario. Una leggenda affascinante e densa di significati, che ci invita a riflettere sui rapporti che intessiamo con i nostri luoghi e sull'impatto che il paesaggio ha nelle vicende umane. Libro.
