Diomede incontra il Vaca : Presenza e funzione di una memoria epica in I piccoli maestri di Luigi Meneghello / E. Merli. - In: PAN. - ISSN 0390-3141. - 2019:8(2019), pp. 163-178. [10.17417/0814]
Abstract:
Luigi Meneghello’s fiction shows a wealth of allusions to Greek and latin literature, the knowledge of which dates back to the author’s studies in middle and high school. references to epic poetry are especially connected with Meneghello’s childhood memories (particularly so in Libera nos a malo), whereas they prove to be insufficient to narrate his experience as an young man of the resistenza in I piccoli maestri. in that novel, the partisan Finco, similar to Diomedes, is the protagonist of an episode which leads the main character S. to abandon further into the novel a naive ideal of heroism derived from the Homeric poems.
