Gender and migration studies: an interdisciplinary approach to contemporary italian literature

The objective is to elaborate a shared model for an effective literary analysis of culturally complex texts, in order to highlight their intersecting discourses on gender, race, class and identity: in particular, the intention is to look at migration literature in Italian language exclusively through the lenses of literary criticism. Many migrant authors are, in fact, establishing themselves to the national attention both for the literary value of their works and for the innovations introduced into Italian literature by merging into each other two cultural memories, histories, languages. It seems now necessary to situate their production in the field of Italian studies
