Working at the intersection of poststructuralism, psychoanalysis, and feminist and postcolonial theories, Minghelli provides a close analysis of Svevo's novels and short stories, exploring the construction of self through constant contamination with the world and the other, a process that consciously subverts accepted narratives of evolutionary progress, gender identities, and national and racial belonging."--Jacket 330 1 $a"In this work Giuliana Minghelli examines Svevo's unique contribution to twentieth-century literature within the framework of his parodic Darwinian fables of the prehistoric encounter between the weak and 'unfinished' man and the incommensurable 'other.' In looking at such novels as Confessions of Zeno and As a Man Grows Older, Minghelli shows how Svevo's fiction displaces the heroic strain in modernism, revealing the self-construction of the subject as an ongoing symbiosis with otherness." 606 $aModernism (Literature)$zItaly 607 $aItaly$2fast 608 $aCriticism, interpretation, etc. 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aModernism (Literature) 676 $a853/.8 700 $aMinghelli$b Giuliana$01522676 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780575203321 996 $aIn the shadow of the mammoth$93762514 997 $aUNINA
