Italianistic Consortium of Analysis & Study of Literature Plays - CIAO

Reference of the Group:

GIUV2013-139

 
Description of research activity:
This research group is oriented towards the study of several specific fields of Italian Philology. It adopts an open, multidisciplinary orientated, methodologically varied, rich and syncretic approach. Texts are the starting point, generally written texts, sometimes oral, and their interpretation. Texts in Italian, possibly with dialectal variants. Chronologically, without excluding other periods, it focuses on contemporaneity (20th and 21st century) and on the literature of the past (17th, 18th and 19th century). From the viewpoint of genres, it not only deals with classical literary genres (poetry, narrative, essays) but also includes theatre, to which it pays great attention, considering the spectacular and musical component. The study of the relationship between Italian literature (especially narrative) and cinema is not neglected. The comparative front, particularly with Spanish and Valencian-Catalan literature, is always a background reference in many of these Italian studies, some of whose corpus are especially rooted in the Valencian territory (musical dramaturgy). Attention is also paid to the translation of Italian texts. The works of certain authors have been studied...This research group is oriented towards the study of several specific fields of Italian Philology.

Attention is also paid to the translation of Italian texts. The works of certain authors have been studied with emphasis, for instance, Giraldi Cinthio, Vicenzo Consolo or Dacia Maraini. Studies are carried out and published mainly in Italian and Spanish, in Italy and Spain, but also in English, etc. and in other countries.
