description This essay suggests that parallels can be drawn between the work of Amelia Rosselli and Deleuze’s Alice. It is structured in three sections that aim to illustrate the points of comparison between Rosselli’s poetry and Deleuze’s interpretation of Carroll’s character. The first part focuses on the women described in the poems – each one seeming to embody a certain aspect of the author’s personality – while the second shows the peculiarities of the places where these women live. There seems to exist a very peculiar relationship between the unsettled identity of Rosselli’s women and the world they inhabit, and Deleuze’s Alice provides a key to understanding these two unsettled components of Rosselli’s poetry. Finally, the third part of the essay concentrates on the lapsus – a feature of Rosselli’s poetic language. Understood as a linguistic strategy, the lapsus seems to become another trait in common between the two poles of the study.
