Partigiani e antiretorica (Fenoglio-Calvino). Omaggio segreto o citazione implicita?

Abstract

Starting from a possible allusion to Sentiero dei nidi di ragno (The Path to the Spiders’ Nest) detected in the first pages of Ventitre giorni della città di Alba (The Twenty-three Days of the City of Alba), this article focuses on the friendship between Beppe Fenoglio and Italo Calvino and their intellectual solidarity in the name of their shared search for an authentic literary representation of the Italian Resistance.
