Beauty is a central concept in the Italian cultural imagination
throughout its history and in virtually all its manifestations. It
particularly permeates the domains that have governed the
construction of Italian identity: literature and language. The Idea
of Beauty in Italian Literature and Language assesses this long
tradition in a series of essays covering a wide chronological and
thematic range, while crossing from historical linguistics to
literary and cultural studies. It offers elements for reflection on
cross-disciplinary approaches in the humanities, and demonstrates
the power of beauty as a fundamental category beyond aesthetics.
