Description
Summary:This paper analyzes some texts by Fulvio Tomizza (Materada, 1960; La miglior vita, 1977; Il sogno dalmata, 2001), based on the Istro-Dalmatic themes of frontier culture and specifically linked to the relationship between identity and culture and particularly between literature and territory. The theme of multiple identity, which is now very widespread, is fully configured (in other words) in these novels: the Istrian red earth is the root of the subject who writes and symbol of a culture of diversities which, coexisting and intertwining, are enriched without canceling themselves, but empowering themselves.
