Giuliana Minghelli, Sorin Tomuta,

Italian Fascism and Post-war Society

marily interested in exploring Italo Svevo's work through biographical lens, Minghelli's approach to Svevo is mainly through theoretical investigative tools.The constant focus on what was called the "Italo Svevo case," a trend that dominated Svevo studies for many years, may be accounted for by a variety of factors, such as the scarcity of biographical details in the English-speaking world, the fascinating intricacies oi Swewos frontier identity, and the spectacular turn of his literary fate.
