This thesis explores the function of literary genres in the production and reception of the literary text, examines the ideological significance of the generic system operative in postwar Italy, and analyzes the five novels written by Italo Calvino from 1950 to 1963. The emphasis is on the relationship between the author's ethico-political stance and his negotiations of the generic system. The first part of the study (Chapters I--III) develops the theoretical tools and historical parameters which are applied to the textual analyses carried out in the second part (Chapters IV--VII). In Chapter I the notion of literariness is examined against the background of recent criticism. The distinctiveness of the literary text is found to reside in the cognitive performance it makes possible. This performance is then analyzed relying on the categories of sense and reference developed by the theory of Possible Worlds. This leads to an examination of two strategies---realist and non-realist---for the articulation of reference, which in turn raises the issue of the role of literary genres in the dialogical interaction mediated by the text. The second chapter focuses on the producer of the text. A connection is established between the epistemic configuration of "modernity" and the emergence of a particular type of producer, namely the "intellectual," who is also the primary interlocutor of "modern" literature. This analysis is then brought to bear, via Gramsci, on the particular situation of twentieth-century intellectuals in Italy. The third chapter provides a panorama of postwar Italy, with an emphasis on the relationship between political events and cultural developments such as the emergence of neorealism as the dominant literary current. The chapters in the second part present a reading of the five novels written by Calvino between 1950 and 1963, namely: I giovani del Po, Il visconte dimezzato, Il barone rampante, Il cavaliere inesistente, and La giornata d'uno scrutatore.

Partindo de um encontro marcado na História (durante anos, Marco Polo foi embaixador de Kublai no Império Mongol), Calvino estrutura uma narrativa encadeada por pequenos textos formados pelos relatos de viagem de Marco Polo e os diálogos entre o imperador e o viajante. As cidades, ao todo 55, todas com nomes femininos e divididas em grupos, são construídas em uma geografia que desafia os mapas do império e os conceitos tradicionais de tempo e espaço. Sendo assim, este estudo propõe identificar a relação dessas cidades com a memória, especificamente de que maneira o espaço dialoga com a memória, como se desenvolve a relação do tempo com o trabalho memorial e de que forma acontece o deslocamento do passado, presente e futuro neste texto literário. A partir da análise dos relatos de viagem em que mais se destacam os temas sobre tempo, espaço, imagem, imaginação, imaginário e sonho e com base nas obras teóricas de Paul Ricoeur, Henri Bergson, Aristóteles, Platão, Edmund Husserl, Michel Foucault, Maurice Blanchot, Benedito Nunes e o próprio Calvino, propõe-se uma teoria da memória através das Cidades invisíveis, em que espaço, tempo e imaginação são compreendidos como eixos norteadores da memória na narrativa literária. / Italo Calvino, in Invisible Cities, awakens in the imagination of the reader infinite times and spaces provided by each city narrated by the traveler Marco Polo to the emperor Kublai Khan. Starting from a milestone meeting in History (for years, Marco Polo was ambassador of Kublai in the Mongol Empire), Calvino structures a narrative chained by small texts formed by the travel reports of Marco Polo and the dialogues between the emperor and the traveler. The cities, all 55, all with feminine names and divided into groups, are built on a geography that challenges the maps of the empire and the traditional concepts of time and space. This study proposes to identify the relationship of these cities to memory, specifically how space dialogues with memory, how the relation of time with the memorial work develops and how the displacement of the past, present and future happens in this literary text. Based on the analysis of travel stories in which themes such as time, space, image, imagination, imagination and dream stand out, and based on the theoretical works of Paul Ricoeur, Henri Bergson, Aristotle, Plato, Edmund Husserl, Michel Foucault, Maurice Blanchot, Benedito Nunes and Calvino himself, this study proposes a theory of memory through the Invisible Cities, in which space, time and imagination are understood as the guiding axes of memory in the literary narrative.

A presente pesquisa se propõe a situar o romance de Italo Calvino como atualizador da tradição autoconsciente do romance. Assim, procura-se demonstrar que a obra realiza em sua arquitetônica a escritura da leitura e a leitura da escritura como inovação dialogizada e polifônica do romance, principalmente nas redes da multiplicidade do narrável. A angústia da escritura e o prazer da leitura tramam a complexa relação autor-leitor, projetada no jogo de sedução e do fugidio, provocando o leitor ao desafio de uma paixão que sempre lhe escapa, a exemplo dos enredos interrompidos _ o gozo sempre interditado. O trabalho pretende, por fim, interpretar questões que se colocam no interior de Se um viajante, de forma a destacá-lo como protagonista de mais um capítulo relevante nos debates sobre a criatividade estética, crítica e ética da produção literária contemporânea. A propósito, a abordagem tem como fundamentação os estudos teóricos demandados pelo próprio romance, a fim de conceber uma crítica capaz de apresentar novas possibilidades interpretativas dos fenômenos expressivos da literatura e seus reflexos nos modos de leitura do mundo. / If on a Winter’s Night a Traveler evokes various critical discourses and at the same time rejects them all. The present thesis shows the work of Italo Calvino in the line of the tradition of the self-conscious novel. It also seeks to demonstrate how the novel integrates in its architectonics the writing of the very act of reading and the readings of fiction-making. Therefore, it stresses the innovative, dialogic and polyphonic aspect of the narrative as well as expands the boundaries of the novel itself. The angst which emerges from the narrative and the pleasure of reading, weave a complex bond between the author and the reader which is projected in the elusive art of seduction. The reader finds himself enraptured in evanescent passion, such as characterized in the interruption of a plot - the usual prohibition in jouissance. Lastly, the present thesis addresses fundamental issues in If on a Winter’s Night a Traveler, namely, the exploration of the novel as a protagonist in the relevant chapters of the debate on aesthetic creativity, literary criticism and the ethics of contemporary literary production. The theoretical basis and critics employed in the analysis of the thesis were selected by the very demands of the novel itself in order to conceive a type of criticism capable of presenting new interpretative possibilities of the literary phenomena and its repercussions in the ways of reading the world.

En s'appuyant sur les outils fournis par la théorie de la littérature et la littérature comparée, cette thèse vise à mettre en évidence les relations entre la littérature hypertextuelle et la littérature potentielle développée par le groupe Oulipo (Ouvroir de Littérature Potentielle). Plus précisément, l'analyse des oeuvres hypertextuelles des principaux écrivains du groupe (Raymond Queneau, Georges Perec, Italo Calvino et Jacques Roubaud, sans que cela soit un obstacle à en convoquer d'autres) est une tentative de démontrer l'importance de l'Oulipo pour la naissance, le développement et la consolidation de l'hypertexte, compris comme une forme d'écriture multiséquentielle où différents fragments textuels reliés entre eux offrent un choix d'itinéraires de lecture. Cette conception structurelle du phénomène accueille à la fois les hypertextes sur support papier et les hypertextes numériques, tout en permettant de parcourir parallèlement l'histoire des littératures potentielle et hypertextuelle, depuis les années soixante (où sont forgés les deux termes), jusqu'à nos jours / The present dissertation aims to reveal the connections between hypertextual literature and potential literature developed by Oulipo (Ouvroir de Littérature Potentielle) using the tools given by the literary theories and comparative literature. More precisely, analysing the hypertextual works of the main driving forces of this literary group - Raymond Queneau, Georges Perec, Italo Calvino and Jacques Roubaud, among others - represents a way of proving the capital importance of Oulipo in the birth, developing and consolidation of hypertext as a form of multi-sequential writing, in which different parts of a text offer different itineraries for a particular reading. Conceiving this phenomenon structurally means including paper hypertexts as well as digital hypertexts, and makes possible a parallel journey along the history of potential and hypertext literature from the 1960s decade - where both terms where coined - to the present moment.

Escrito pelo ficcionista e ensaísta italiano Italo Calvino, e publicado pela Einaudi em 1979, Se um viajante numa noite de inverno é uma das mais significativas obras metaficcionais da literatura ocidental, na medida em que seu autor desvela os mecanismos da narração, desencadeando uma reflexão sobre a prática da escritura e da leitura, bem como sobre as relações entre o escritor, o texto e o leitor dentro da própria obra literária. Assim, esta dissertação busca demonstrar como o romance Se um viajante numa noite de inverno opera sobre o horizonte de expectativas do Leitor – o protagonista do romance, tomando como referenciais teóricos a Hermenêutica filosófica, as Estéticas da recepção e do efeito, bem como as concepções provenientes dos estudos de região e regionalidade. São observados, nesse sentido, conceitos e categorias intrinsecamente associados ao horizonte de expectativas do Leitor, tais como experiência hermenêutica, experiência estética, lugares vazios, região e regionalidade. / Submitted by Ana Guimarães Pereira (agpereir@ucs.br) on 2014-12-05T12:41:21Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissertacao Bruno Brizotto.pdf: 1308074 bytes, checksum: 6071d7adf66dcb4a6da00c3634e378f4 (MD5) / Made available in DSpace on 2014-12-05T12:41:21Z (GMT).

Thus, this dissertation aims to demonstrate how the novel If on a winter’s night a traveler operates on the horizon of expectations of the Reader – the protagonist of the novel, taking as theoretical references the Philosophical hermeneutics, the Aesthetics of reception and effect, as well as the conceptions derived from the studies of region and regionality. It is observed, in this sense, concepts and categories intrinsically associated with the horizon of expectations of the Reader, such as hermeneutic experience, aesthetic experience, empty spaces, region, and regionality.
