description This book focuses upon an aspect which has been little investigated to date in the poetics of Iosif Brodskij: the rich intertextual network that links his verses to classical literature. Brodskij's intertext never appears as imitation but rather as mimesis, like an inescapable mediation - at times concealed by the presence of cultures diachronically closer, the Russian in the first place - strongly impregnated with meaning and teaching: "(As for creation, the pen has created very little). / But how much light it casts in the night, / the ink, merging with the darkness!". This book proposes moments of reflection on the intense and nuanced relation that connects Brodskij's poetics with the poetics of Aristotle, and the subtle but equally strong links of Brodskij's idea of democracy with that of the organisation of government in Plato's Republic. Pursuing an historic approach, the book delineates the characteristics of Brodskij as a reader of the classics and, at the same time, as a person intimately involved, at an individual and collective level, in the events of Russian culture. In Brodskij's dialogical approach, in particular in relation to ancient classical culture, the lineaments of the poet emerge clearly. Considered in their globality, these reveal inspiration, thought (profound, and strongly impregnated with philosophy), moral rigour (ironic and self-ironising), the renunciation of the display of feelings, and the tension towards an autobiographical writing that is universalised and externalised, a strong and constant link with the narration of myths and, in a manner that is increasingly marked over the time of his life and work, a progressive prevalence of the signs of the classical authors.

Lezioni di poesia mette in luce un aspetto finora poco indagato nella poetica di Iosif Brodskij, la ricca rete intertestuale che lega i suoi versi alle letterature classiche. L'intertesto brodskiano mai appare come "imitazione", piuttosto come "mimesis", come una mediazione, talvolta celata dalla presenza di culture diacronicamente più vicine, in primis quella russa ineludibile, fortemente impregnata di senso e insegnamento: «(Creando, ben poco la penna ha creato). / Ma quanta luce dà nella notte, / con il buio fondendosi, l'inchiostro!». Lezioni di poesia propone momenti di riflessioni sull'intenso e sfumato rapporto che lega poetica brodskiana e poetica aristotelica, e sui sottili ma altrettanto forti nessi dell'idea di democrazia in Brodskij con quella dell'organizzazione di governo nella Repubblica di Platone. Tramite un percorso storico il volume delinea i tratti di Brodskij, lettore dei classici e, contemporaneamente, persona intimamente coinvolta, sul piano individuale e collettivo, nelle vicende della cultura russa. Nel "porsi dialogico" di Brodskij, in particolare nei confronti dell'antica cultura classica, si fanno emergere chiari i lineamenti del poeta, che nel loro insieme evocano ispirazione, pensiero (profondo e fortemente impregnato di filosofia), rigore morale (ironico e autoironico), rinuncia all'esibizione dei sentimenti, tensione a una scrittura autobiografica "universalizzata" e "estraniata", forte e costante legame con la narrazione dei miti e, in maniera sempre più rimarcabile nel tempo dell'esistenza e dell'opera, un progressivo prevalere dei "segni" degli autori classici. 2021-02-10T12:58:18Z 2010-06-01 00:00:00 2020-04-01T15:30:12Z 2006 book 341479 OCN: 1024095879 437400474 http://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/34949 9788864531052 https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/29114 ita Biblioteca di Studi di Filologia Moderna open access image/jpeg image/jpeg image/jpeg image/jpeg n/a n/a n/a n/a https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/34949/1/341479.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/34949/1/341479.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/34949/1/341479.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/34949/1/341479.pdf Firenze University Press 10.36253/978-88-6453-105-2 10.36253/978-88-6453-105-2 2ec4474d-93b1-4cfa-b313-9c6019b51b1a 9788864531052 open access
