Baudolino

Baudolino

Autore: Umberto Eco

Numero di pagine: 434

Né dans le Piémont en 1932, titulaire de la chaire de sémiotique de l'Université de Bologne, Umberto Eco a enseigné à Paris au Collège de France ainsi qu'à l'Ecole Normale Supérieure de la rue d'Ulm. Il est l'auteur de nombreux essais dont Comment voyager avec un saumon et de trois romans, Le Nom de la Rose, Le Pendule de Foucault et L'île du jour d'avant. Un très grand livre... Baudolino, un jeune paysan fantasque et menteur, fait la conquête de Frédéric Barberousse et devient son fils adoptif. Baudolino fabule, invente, et, comme par miracle, tout ce qu'il imagine devient histoire. Ainsi, entre autres, il écrit la lettre mythique du Prêtre Jean, qui promettait à l'Occident un royaume fabuleux dans le lointain Orient gouverné par un roi chrétien, qui a fait rêver de nombreux voyageurs, dont Marco Polo. Baudolino grandit. Alexandrie naît vers 1168 et des années après, poussé par le génie inventif de Baudolino, Frédéric part, prenant pour prétexte une croisade, rendre au Prêtre Jean la relique la plus précieuse du christianisme, que certains appellent le Gradale. Il mourra lors de ce long voyage, dans des circonstances mystérieuses que seul Baudolino...

Baudolino

Autore: Umberto Eco

Numero di pagine: 557

Charmeur, coquin, roublard et fieffé menteur, Baudolino grandit dans la campagne du bas Piémont pendant que l'empereur Frédéric Barberousse y guerroie, quelque part entre Milan et Pavie. Après une rencontre dont le récit restera un joyau de la fantaisie d'Umberto Eco, Baudolino conquiert la curiosité et l'affection de l'Empereur au point d'en devenir le fils adoptif. Doué pour les langues comme un caméléon pour les couleurs, Baudolino progresse vite, à Paris d'abord où il a connu le double enseignement des Maîtres et de la bamboche la plus insouciante, puis en Italie et en Allemagne où il chevauche, aux côtés de Frédéric dont il est l'homme de confiance et le fin conseiller. Mais toujours il rêve, affabule, et tout ce qu'il imagine finit par produire de l'Histoire. C'est ainsi qu'il échafaude la lettre mythique de ce Prêtre Jean que l'on disait régner dans un lointain et inaccessible Orient, au milieu d'enchantements et de monstres. Poussé par Baudolino, l'Empereur participera à la troisième croisade, prétexte pour aller remettre au Prêtre Jean la plus précieuse des reliques de la chrétienté. Dès lors, l'histoire de Baudolino se déroulera en une...

The Philosophy of Umberto Eco

The Philosophy of Umberto Eco

Autore: Sara G. Beardsworth , Randall E. Auxier

Numero di pagine: 758

The Philosophy of Umberto Eco stands out in the Library of Living Philosophers series as the volume on the most interdisciplinary scholar hitherto and probably the most widely translated. The Italian philosopher’s name and works are well known in the humanities, both his philosophical and literary works being translated into fifteen or more languages. Eco is a founder of modern semiotics and widely known for his work in the philosophy of language and aesthetics. He is also a leading figure in the emergence of postmodern literature, and is associated with cultural and mass communication studies. His writings cover topics such as advertising, television, and children’s literature as well as philosophical questions bearing on truth, reality, cognition, language, and literature. The critical essays in this volume cover the full range of this output. This book has wide appeal not only because of its interdisciplinary nature but also because of Eco’s famous “high and low” approach, which is deeply scholarly in conception and very accessible in outcome. The short essay “Why Philosophy?” included in the volume is exemplary in this regard: it will appeal to scholars for its...

Testo e metodo

Testo e metodo

Numero di pagine: 411

Recent studies of humanities methods and theory have drawn attention to the ambiguity of disciplinary boundaries and the need to develop interdisciplinary approaches. Nevertheless, collective works on literature are still mainly composed on the basis of a shared disciplinary paradigm, and comprised of authors who are associated with a common methodological approach. “Testo e Metodo” (in Italian) is a bold attempt to assemble research which was undertaken according to different theoretical frameworks. Scholars from Italy, Estonia and France explore the results of applying philological, historic-critical, philosophical, semiotic, geocritical, and anthropological conceptual tools to literary texts. The common rationale of all the contributions is a critical attention to the conceptual arsenal and the epistemological limits that it imposes on the research with regard to specific texts. This self-analyzing attitude on the part of the researcher exposes the particular method to a revitalizing interplay with the analyzed text(s). For scholars and teachers in the field of Italian literary studies, this book promotes innovative multidisciplinary perspectives; for students of...

Le avventure intellettuali di Umberto Eco

Le avventure intellettuali di Umberto Eco

Autore: Stefano Traini

Numero di pagine: 206

È possibile ricostruire il pensiero di un personaggio poliedrico e camaleontico come Umberto Eco? Stefano Traini, uno dei suoi allievi che oggi insegna Semiotica, ci prova in questo libro: parte dalla tesi di laurea di Eco sul pensiero estetico in Tommaso d’Aquino, prosegue con i suoi studi sulle avanguardie e sulla cultura di massa con i quali si è affermato negli anni sessanta e arriva alla teoria semiotica nella quale Eco affronta con metodo scientifico lo studio dei segni, dei codici, dell’interpretazione. Ripercorre quindi i romanzi che lo hanno reso celebre in tutto il mondo e ricostruisce le sue riflessioni sui media e le comunicazioni di massa, laboratorio privilegiato in cui Eco ha affinato il suo sguardo critico sulla società e ha messo a punto gli strumenti dell’analisi semiotica. Conclude con alcune note sulla morte, molto presente in tutti i suoi romanzi e oggetto di riflessioni anche ironiche in certi scritti occasionali. Così, pagina dopo pagina, ci scorre davanti la vita intellettuale di un uomo straordinario, che con la sua diffidenza granitica e la sua proverbiale ironia ci ha insegnato un metodo nuovo per osservare il mondo e interpretarne i segni.

The Modern Afterlives of Old Irish Travel Narratives

The Modern Afterlives of Old Irish Travel Narratives

Autore: Natalia I. Petrovskaia

Numero di pagine: 232

This book explores the reception of the medieval Irish tradition of fantastic journey tales in Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels, C.S. Lewis's The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, Umberto Eco's Baudolino, and the science fiction television franchises Star Trek and Stargate. In doing so, the book opens the door to a new history of literary reception, using Old Irish genre categories to analyse post-medieval texts. It aims to show that there is a family of texts produced in the post-medieval period that are heirs of the medieval Irish literary tradition of fantastic voyage narratives and that using Old Irish genre categories to analyse post-medieval works can open up new perspectives in our understanding of these works.
