Il mito e il sacro: Pasolini e la ricezione di d’Annunzio

Abstract

The essay sets out to explore, on the one hand, the relationship that d’Annunzio and Pasolini had with myth and the sacred, and, on the other hand, to investigate, in an anthropological perspective, the causes and consequences of the ‘dissolution’ of values related to an ancestral and rural religiosity in modern and contemporary society.
