A significant portion of the journal's content is dedicated to Italian literature, particularly the works of prominent authors such as Italo Svevo and Dante Alighieri, providing critical analyses and contextual studies. - Interdisciplinary Connections:
The journal encourages the exploration of literature in relation to other disciplines, including ethics, memory studies, and audiovisual media, fostering a broader understanding of literary impact. - Gender and Identity Studies:
Recent publications indicate a focus on gender roles and identity within literature, showcasing how female authors and perspectives contribute to the literary canon. - Narrative Theory and Structure:
The analysis of narrative forms and structures, including modernist techniques, is a recurring theme, reflecting on how these elements influence reader reception and interpretation.
Trending and Emerging
- Psychological Analysis of Literature:
Recent publications indicate a growing interest in psychological readings of literary texts, particularly through the lens of characters' internal struggles and identity crises, as seen in analyses of Svevo's works. - Ethics and Memory in Literature:
There is an emerging focus on the ethical dimensions of literature, particularly in relation to memory and testimony, exploring how narratives shape collective and individual identities. - Intersections of Literature and Media:
The interplay between literature and audiovisual media has gained traction, with studies examining adaptations and the narrative structures that bridge these forms, reflecting contemporary consumption patterns. - Feminist Perspectives in Literary Canon:
An increasing number of articles address the contributions of female authors and the re-evaluation of the literary canon through feminist lenses, indicating a shift towards inclusivity in literary discourse. - Modernist Literature and Reader Engagement:

Declining or Waning
- Classical Literary Analysis:
There has been a noticeable decrease in traditional analyses of classical texts, particularly those that do not engage with contemporary theoretical frameworks or interdisciplinary approaches. - Focus on Non-Italian Literature:
The emphasis on non-Italian literature, while still present, seems to be waning, as more articles concentrate on Italian authors and texts, potentially limiting the journal's broader literary scope. - Historical Contextualization:
Although historical analyses are still relevant, there appears to be a shift away from purely historical contextualization towards more thematic and philosophical explorations of literature. - Philosophical Discourse in Literature:
While philosophical themes have been part of the journal's discussions, the specific exploration of philosophical texts or concepts in literature seems to have diminished, with a stronger focus on narrative and character studies.
