L'Orfeo d'Irlanda: echi classici nell'opera di Seamus Heaney

La tesi si propone di indagare la massiccia presenza di rimandi classici, greci e latini, nell'opera di Seamus Heaney, con particolare attenzione alle poesie giovanili non incluse in raccolta. Attraverso la definizione di un personale "mythic method", Heaney elabora un'originale ars poetica, proponendo le sue composizioni come terreno per un confronto dialettico fra presente e passato.

Le paysage comme fragmentation de l'Esthetique de la nature a l'Epoque contemporaine. Les experiences poetiques de zanzotto, jaccottet at heaney

In this work, we have considered the theme of landscape in the poetry of Andrea Zanzotto, Philippe Jaccottet and Seamus Heaney within the perspective of a fragmentation of the aesthetics of nature. To that end, the most advanced theories of aesthetics applied to nature, such as environmental Aesthetics and Aesthetik der Natur (also known as ökologische Aesthetik) have been taken into account. The philosophical perspective of Paolo D’Angelo, insights from geography (in particular from the works of Franco Farinelli) and from ecology (considering the contributions of Gilles Clément to this discipline) have also been useful. We have argued that the poetic experiences of Zanzotto, Jaccottet and Heaney follow a similar path, each starting from the fusion between the poetic subject and landscape to reach a two-way relationship between them. In this interpretation, the concept of landscape has been considered, according to Michel Collot’s theory of pensée-paysage, as a phenomenon. The poetic texts have been analysed under the lenses of linguistic, stylistic and rhetorical approaches, consistent with the idea that every text must be studied within its context, as every poetic experience is constituted of three elements: the poetic subject, his language and his world, the latest being shaped by and shaping the subject’s position and the perspectives related to it: that is his discourse to the world and in this world.
