«Una minestra riscaldata»? Il gioco della ricorsività nel ciclo di Nane Oca di Giuliano Scabia
Abstract
References to proverbs and popular sayings occur over and over in Giuliano Scabia’s Nane Oca tetralogy, and several warn against repetitions and things which go on for too long. These passages provide an opportunity to analyse how Giuliano Scabia employs recursive patterns in his work, both inside the same novel and between different novels: a reasoned and structured use, sustained by the awareness that repetition plays a crucial role in aesthetic experience, which, for its part, is rooted in children’s games.
