This book is about the presence of utopian and dystopian elements
in the Italian literary landscape. It focuses on four authors that
are representatives of the various positions in the Italian
cultural debate: Pasolini, Calvino, Sanguineti, and Volponi. What
did concepts like utopia and dystopia mean for these authors? Is it
possible to separate utopia from dystopia? What is the role of
science fiction in this debate? This book answers these questions,
proposing an original interpretation of utopia and of the social
role of literature. The book also takes into consideration four of
the most influential literary journals in Italy: Officina, il
menabo, il verri, and Nuovi Argomenti, that played a central role
in the cultural and political debate on utopia in Italy.
