Soglie dell'impermanenza: Lo spazio etico della poesia di Antonella Anedda

Abstract

The article focuses on the relevance of space in Antonella Anedda's work, understood as an experience of openness to reality and history, as well as loss of protection and guarantees. It is then highlighted how the author's poetics of space can be usefully placed in dialogue with Benjamin's reflection in the Passages on "threshold experiences". Subsequently, the article aims to show the peculiarity of the reception by Anedda of the German-speaking poet Paul Celan, in an ethical rather than an aesthetic or merely existential key, starting precisely from a proximity regarding the relationship between the poetic word and "threshold words", between silence and the need to speak (and testify), in both authors.
