Description

Massimo Lollini. Il vuoto della forma: scrittura, testimonianza e verita. Genova: Marietti, 2001. Pp. viii + 347. Il vuoto della forma: scrittura, testimonianza e verita is a most welcome result of Lollini's decade-long meditation on the complex philosophical issues associated with testimonial writing. Through four main sections, each comprising numerous sub-chapters, Lollini effortlessly explores the problematic truth-value that emerges from the texts of an impressive number of philosophers, poets, and novelists. Focusing, in particular, on works by Serra, Gramsci, Levi, and Calvino, Lollini convincingly argues that they provide a viable alternative to the extreme poles of metaphysical idealism and symbolic skepticism. More specifically, these are works that, although traversed by the limits of representation, or, in the words of Serra, by the "vuoto della forma" that inhabits all symbolization, still render testimony to the traumatic events that have shaped private and public history. By so doing, they ultimately come to exemplify a practice of writing as a necessary, but always limited and provisional quest for meaning and truth.
