I MAESTRI DI CRITICA LETTERARIA 1973-2022

The volume collects the proceedings of the series of seminars I Maestri di «Critica Literaria», held in Naples, in May 2022, to celebrate the fifty years of the magazine founded by Pompeo Giannantonio, in 1973, within the Federico II, and printed, since its birth, by the Neapolitan publisher Loffredo.
Scholars from Italian and foreign universities have reconstructed the profile of the Masters who, since the foundation of the magazine, have animated the historical-critical debate in the columns of «Critica Letteraria»: Giannantonio, Pasquazi, Petrocchi, Battistini, Di Benedetto, Bàrberi Squarotti, Baldelli , Vallone, Sipala, Villa, Valli, Luti, Scrivano, Padoan, Petrucciani, Mariani. The lesson of the Masters, through the reconstruction and reflection of young and old scholars, who were not their students, lives again in the pages of this volume, which shows the crucial role of journals for the future of research.
