Pier Paolo Pasolini, Framed and Unframed: A Thinker for the Twenty-First Century

Editat de Luca Peretti, Karen T. Raizen
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 12 dec 2018
This cross-disciplinary volume, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Framed and Unframed, explores and complicates our understanding of Pasolini today, probing notions of otherness in his works, his media image, and his legacy. Over 40 years after his death Pier Paolo Pasolini continues to challenge and interest us, both in academic circles and in popular discourses. Today his films stand as lampposts of Italian cinematic production, his cinematic theories resonate broadly through academic circles, and his philosophical, essayistic, and journalistic writings-albeit relatively sparsely translated into other languages-are still widely influential. Pasolini has also become an image, a mascot, a face on tote bags, a graffiti image on walls, an adjective (pasolinian). The collected essays push us to consider and reconsider Pasolini, a thinker for the twenty-first century.

Recenzii

A rich and timely collection of essays on late 20th-century Italy's most controversial poet, novelist, filmmaker and polemicist Pier Paolo Pasolini (1922-1975). This volume bravely and deftly rejects the hagiography that often plagues 'Pasolini studies,' opening up his multivalent works to a long-overdue reassessment in line with urgent 21st-century questions, from climate change to the enduring racial regimes of western (neo)colonialism.
So much has already been said and written about Pasolini but Peretti and Raizen's volume nevertheless succeeds admirably in opening up some genuinely new vistas on the life, work and relevance to our own times of this fascinating, if frustratingly contradictory, figure.
What I like about the collection of essays is that they approach the protagonist in an objective and unprejudiced way and examine the man's emissions with questions pertinent to the times we live in.
