| Popis: | Pier Paolo Pasolini Continues to Be Known Outside of Italy Primarily as A filmmaker and Controversial Public Intellectual whose uncompromising explorations of sexuality, religious meaning, and social exclusion gave expression to a “uniquely provocative and prophetic modernity” (Hirschman 9). Recent scholarship in English is only beginning to reveal the extraordinary variety and quality of Pasolini's writing in Italian, and it has barely touched on his early works in Friulian. Friulian is a Romance variety spoken in Friuli, a region in the far northeast of Italy, where Pasolini spent many a summer as a child in his mother's hometown of Casarsa. In the Friulian of Casarsa, Pasolini thought he had found a “pure poetic language” (“Al lettore” 8), unsullied by previous literary usage yet integral to the archaic lifeworld of the marginalized peasants for whom he felt “a sweet and violent love, both turbid and pure” (Passione 137). |
