| Yhteenveto: | The intention of this contribution is to investigate the relationship between Dante Alighieri and Pier Paolo Pasolini through a comparative approach. The object of comparison regards the early poetic work of each author, the first rime (ca. 1283-95) and Poesie a Casarsa (1942), which they both then included in later works, an act of repurposing that effectively constitutes the creation of long-term poetic laboratories. Dante reused some of the rime for the Vita Nova (ca. 1295) and for the Convivio (1304-07) and mentioned three of them in the Commedia (1304-21). Pasolini republished Poesie a Casarsa in La meglio gioventù (1954) and later in La nuova gioventù (1975). This study intends to compare Dante’s and Pasolini’s poetic laboratories with the aim of highlighting the strategies employed by the two authors to renew and repurpose their early work. In particular, the intention is to demonstrate that, for both poets, reusing their early poems implied a retrospective re-interpretation of the previous poetic work, which contributed to the construction of the author’s poetic autobiography. |
