Conrad in Italy provides international students and researchers
with a variety of critical approaches. Richard Ambrosini surveys
Conrad's reception within the Italian academy. Franco Marenco's
essay on "Heart of Darkness" outlines Conrad's centrality in
English Modernism. Alessandro Serpieri deals with Conrad's
impressionistic treatment of space in The Secret Agent and other
texts. Giuseppe Sertoli focuses on Conrad's debt to the Comtesse de
Boigne's Memoires and to James's Portrait of a Lady in the writing
of Suspense. Fausto Ciompi investigates the isotopy of dream in
Lord Jim and other early novels. Elio Di Piazza reads the The
Mirror of the Sea as an inquiry into British and Russian empires.
Maria Teresa Chialant's study of "Amy Foster" and "Tomorrow"
accounts for the interest of Italian critics in Conrad's minor
works. Francesco Marroni unfolds the moral structure of "The Secret
Sharer". Nicoletta Vallorani tackles the theme of the double in
"The Secret Sharer" from the perspective of the art of photography.
Luisa Villa illuminates the complex structure of Chance in the
light of Conrad's re-elaboration of the Victorian multi-plot novel.
Mario Domenichelli proposes a reading of Conrad's cooperation with
Ford. The Inheritors is the subject of Mario Curreli's essay on
Conrad's debt to H.G. Wells, Zangwill, and Drumont, while it places
the issue of fourth-dimension in the context of European
colonialisms. Marialuisa Bignami's survey of Conrad's influence on
Primo Levi and Marilena Saracino's intertextual analysis of "Heart
of Darkness" and Luigi Guarneri's Tenebre sul Congo are two
exercises in dialogic reading which confirm Conrad's
well-established reception in Italian culture.
