Description
cm. 17 x 24, x-156 pp. Biblioteca dell'?Archivum Romanicum? - Serie I: Storia, Letteratura, Paleografia "A reading of Eugenio Montale?s and T.S. Eliot?s works in their cultural context reveals how the nihilistic aspects of literary Modernism are counterbalanced by a developing belief in the creative, spiritual and political power of an idealized youth. Both poets attempt to revive what they perceive as a decrepit Western culture, while ambivalently coming to terms with what they see as the renovating expressions of women?s, popular and non-Western cultures.
