LEONARDO SCIASCIAS FRENCH AUTHORS - IAN MORRISO...

Sciascia frequently alludes to French authors  and is often taken to have a close relationship
with French literature in general. However  academic critics have never given this important
relationship comprehensive and detailed examination. This book focuses on the most relevant
French writers. For the majority  attention falls on two complementary areas: the opinions that
Sciascia expresses about the writer in his essays  and intertextual allusions to the writer in
Sciascia's fiction. These allusions often shift the meaning of the host text or markedly
increase its impact. This book works on the assumption that  in order to analyse these effects
fully  a careful reading of the relevant French texts is needed. This exploration leads to a
reappraisal of Sciascia's relations both with particular French authors and also with French
literature generally.
