Programme

The most recent developments in multicultural Italian literature will be framed in the thirty-year history of migrant literature in the italian cultural context. Both in the field of Italian-speaking poetry and of translingual fiction, comparative analysis will be proposed, with reference to other cultural, linguistic and artistic expression codes. Finally, the analysis will be extended to the recent fortune, among the autochthonous Italian writers, of the storytelling of migration
