The scottish poet and novelist John Burnside, winner of the T.S. Eliot Prize (2011) and the Forward Poetry Prize (2011), author of 14 books of poetry and 12 novels, has explored in his first novel The Dumb House the origin of language picking up the thread of the persian myth of Akbar the Great and his expirement with children growing in an enviroment without any contact to human language. The research on how and what human language can express and reflect of human perception of the world and, even more, of its role in the world, is one of the main questions Burnside poses in his writings. In this interview the role of perception, language and imagination as main elements of any poetic production, but also usually identified as main distinction between humans and animals will be discussed, reflecting on Burnside’s poems, the Aristotelian definitions of soul and imagination, Montaigne and Stifter.

This study of the first handwritten and literary reception records of the Vita Nuova provides an innovative addition to our understanding of Italian poetry of the Trecento. Studying the reception of the Vita Nova through its textual vehicles, taking a literary textual analysis as a departure point for a paleographic examination and cultural historical evaluation, is an innovation in Dante research.

Il convegno focalizza l’attenzione su alcuni aspetti di particolare
rilievo nella produzione di Hans Magnus Enzensberger (1929-
2022), poeta, scrittore, traduttore ed editore, uno dei più noti e
influenti intellettuali tedeschi: il suo interesse per il
Romanticismo, per le questioni di poetica e per la vita
romantica, la riflessione sull'importanza dell’espressione
poetica e il suo legame con le altre arti e scienze. Enzensberger
conclude i suoi studi con una dissertazione sulla poetica di
Clemens Brentano (1778-1842), uno dei massimi esponenti del
Romanticismo, cura un’edizione di alcune sue opere e nel 1995
pubblica Requiem für eine romantische Frau: Die Geschichte
von Auguste Bußmann und Clemens Brentano. Dal testo di
Enzensberger è stata ricavata anche una versione
cinematografica che si trasmetterà alla presenza della regista
Dagmar Knöpfel.
