芦Deeply versed in recent theoretical discussions of the lyric form in general and the elegy in particular, Adele Bardazzi also brings to bear queer thinking on temporality and philosophical treatments of mourning to shift the understanding of Montale鈥檚 verse, contesting the division between an early lyrical phase and a later ironic phase. A rich combination of sensitive readings and critical reflection.禄
(Jonathan Culler, Cornell 木瓜福利影视, Author of Theory of the Lyric)

芦In a series of carefully wrought readings of poems in which Montale writes of his lost loves, death, mourning, and his own quite particular vision of the afterlife, Adele Bardazzi both challenges traditional interpretations of Montalian poetic beloveds and offers her own convincing overview of the eschatological dimension of one of the twentieth century鈥檚 most essential bodies of verse. A surprisingly fresh take on a much-studied poet, this fine book gives new life to the realm of death in which Montale鈥檚 poetry of mourning is so tenaciously rooted.禄
(Rebecca West, William R. Kenan, Jr. Distinguished Service Professor Emerita of Italian, 木瓜福利影视 of Chicago)

芦Adele Bardazzi鈥檚 book offers an original perspective on Montale鈥檚 work. The poetics of mourning allows on the one hand to read the text in the light of the theory of the lyric and, on the other hand, to highlight the importance of some figures in Montale鈥檚 poetry, through an evocative comparison with the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice and that of Persephone.禄

This book is as much about the living as it is about the dead. It investigates how the dead dwell in the world of the living and how that continuing relationship has inspired particular forms of poetic writing. It analyses how poetry assumes the key responsibility of voicing grief and thus creates a unique space in which the dead鈥檚 presence is sustained, in a constant state of potential transformation and renewal. This monograph explores this topic with reference to one of the most important poets of the twentieth century, Eugenio Montale (1896鈥�1981), and his principal collections, from Ossi di seppia (Cuttlefish Bones) (1925) to Quaderno di Quattro anni (Notebook of Four Years) (1977). These primary texts are enhanced by a critical framework that brings three different areas of enquiry into dialogue: scholarship on mourning, theories of the lyric, and feminist approaches. Questions explored include the following: How does mourning become a crucial creative and ethical force in literature? What kind of poetry draws on, and may even require, the presence of an absent female lyric addressee? How does this affect the nature of poetic discourses on mourning and lyric poetry more broadly? This book offers the first comprehensive study of Montale鈥檚 poetics of mourning accessible to both scholars in Italian Studies and scholars interested, more broadly, in modern poetry, discourses of mourning, and lyric theory.

Poetry has always maintained a particular relationship with mourning and its rituals, but what is it that lyric discourse has to offer in coping with death, grief, and bereavement? On the other hand, how does mourning become a central creative force in lyric poetry? How does this affect the nature of its discourse and the desires it performs? Focusing on poems by Giacomo Leopardi, Guido Gozzano, Giorgio Caproni, Giorgio Bassani, Amelia Rosselli, Antonella Anedda, and Vivian Lamarque, the essays collected in this volume explore how poetry dwells on the boundaries between high lyric and vernacular forms, the personal and the political, the local and the national, the individual and the collective, one鈥檚 own story and public history, the masculine and the feminine, individual expression and shared language. The Italian poetic tradition finds two crucial milestones in two collections of poems devoted to the lost beloved, Dante鈥檚 Vita Nova and Petrarch鈥檚 Canzoniere, and its modern and contemporary ramifications have much to offer for reflection on the ethics and poetics of mourning.

鈥淎 book that strikes a blow at the heart of cis-hetero-patriarchal ideology. Challenging the view that outside the Law of the Father (who is always white, Western, and owner) there would be only chaos, authoritative voices in the feminist international debate respond not only through critique, but also by displaying alternative principles of authority. A subversive, empowering, necessary text.鈥� 鈥� Lorenzo Bernini, Associate Professor of Political Philosophy, and Director of the Research Centre PoliTeSse, 木瓜福利影视 of Verona, Italy

鈥淎n important and wide-ranging study of one the most pressing issues of our time and of all time 鈥� the systematic exclusion of female bodies and voices from structures of authority across cultures. The book issues a powerful call for us to resist and reframe authority, exploring the transformative potential offered by intersectional politics, knowledge-sharing, rewriting of history, resistant reading, and art.鈥� 鈥� Elleke Boehmer, Professor of World Literature in English, and Director of the Oxford Life Writing Centre, 木瓜福利影视 of Oxford, UK

鈥淭his book uses interdisciplinary approaches to a highly innovative set of discussions of gender and authority, most creatively and imaginatively. The book is effectively organised thematically, around politics, law and religion, and is truly diverse and multi-ethnic in its content, authorship and theoretical and methodological perspectives. This collection of essays provides an engaging, thought-provoking and genuinely innovative perspective of the ways in which gender and sexual politics intersect with and inform authority.鈥� 鈥� Kath Woodward, Emeritus Professor of Sociology at the Open 木瓜福利影视, UK

This edited collection investigates the relationship between gender and authority across geographical contexts, periods and fields. Who is recognized as a legitimate voice in debate and decision-making, and how is that legitimization produced? Through a variety of methodological approaches, the chapters address some of the most pressing and controversial themes under scrutiny in current feminist scholarship and activism, such as pornography, political representation, LGBTI struggles, female genital mutilation, the #MeToo movement, abortion, divorce and consent. Organized into three sections, 鈥淧olitics,鈥� 鈥淟aw and Religion,鈥� and 鈥淚maginaries,鈥� the contributors highlight formal and informal aspects of authority, its gendered and racialized configurations, and practices of solidarity, resistance and subversion by traditionally disempowered subjects. In dialogue with feminist scholarship on power and agency, the notion of authority as elaborated here offers a distinctive lens to critique political and epistemic foundations of inequality and oppression, and will be of use to scholars and students across gender studies, sociology, politics, linguistics, theology, history, law, film, and literature. 

鈥淚s there more to elegy than consolation or its refusal? The essays that animate this exciting and timely collection invite us to think beyond the familiar binary of elegy and anti-elegy, revealing the many other types of labor mourning poems assume in our increasingly global world: embodiments of social justice, expressions of international solidarity, vehicles of democratization, exercises in shared empathy. An important and field-changing book.鈥� - Diana Fuss, Louis W. Fairchild Class of 鈥�24 Professor of English, Princeton 木瓜福利影视. 

"Situated at the threshold of life and death, the elegy maintains a universal pertinence across cultures. Its histories in many ways represent the histories of humanity. This volume offers invaluable insights into the history of the contemporary elegy in its diverse forms of expression. Its broad-ranging essays leave no doubt that there does indeed exist an 鈥榚legiac solidarity鈥� (Jahan Ramazani) among the manifold of elegiac genres in contemporary world literature." - Robert Harrison, Emeritus Rosina-Pierotti Professor of Italian Literature, Stanford 木瓜福利影视.

This volume navigates the entangled expressions of mourning across languages, cultures, and traditions, shedding light on the evolving shapes and discourses of contemporary elegy in world literature. By adopting a transnational approach, this collection offers a much needed conceptualization of what elegy has become today.
