cm. 17 x 24, xxxviii-146 pp. English Text. Biblioteca dell'?Archivum Romanicum? - Serie I: Storia, Letteratura, Paleografia Una lettura nuova del pi? noto dramma eliotiano. Marchesi rivela come Eliot attribuisca al Male ? i quattro Tentatori e i quattro Cavalieri ? una potenzialit? argomentativa superiore, basata sulla retorica, sull?intertestualit? e, infine, su metodi terapeutici pre-freudiani. L?aderenza al testo dimostra come il tema liturgico e i contenuti religiosi siano stati ampiamente sopravvalutati. Assassinio nella cattedrale ? riportato alla sua natura originaria: un dramma essenzialmente modernista, radicato nel contesto del dramma sperimentale europeo. A new approach to T.S. Eliot?s best known play. Marchesi explores the strategies through which T.S. Eliot endows Evil ? the four Tempters and the four Knights ? with overwhelming discursive powers, based on rhetoric, intertextuality, and even pre-Freudian therapeutic methods. Textual evidence proves that the liturgical element and the devotional contents have been largely overrated, and Murder in the Cathedral is restored to its original status: a quintessentially Modernist play, rooted in the context of European experimental drama.
