  1. Mit „An den Rändern“ öffnet Elena Ferrante die Tür zu ihrem literarischen Schaffen. Die Autorin spricht über Schreibprozesse, Figurenentwicklung und die Emanzipation schreibender Frauen.

    Annegret Glock empfiehlt das Buch in ihrer Rezension auf schreiblust-leselust.de besonders Ferrante-Leserinnen und -Lesern.

  2. Warum zum Fick kann man Leute nicht einfach in Ruhe kreativ und anonym schaffen lassen, wenn sie nicht gerade Nazis sind?

    Wenn jemand hinter dem eigenen Werk zurücktreten möchte und das unmissverständlich äußert, warum müssen irgendwelche Arschgeigen dann immer wieder zum Halali blasen?

  4. 🧵 3/3

    A final discovery in my browsing of the TLS was the suggestion by Tim Parks that the much loved Neapolitan author known as Elena Ferrante might in fact be a man:

    >>...in 2016, after the revelation that Ferrante's publisher had paid large sums of money to the translator Anita Raja, many people supposed, despite Raja's denials, that she was Ferrante, .... However, academic research has suggested a different story. Analysing an electronic corpus of 150 novels by forty contemporary Italian writers (including seven by Ferrante), a study in 2017 at Neuchatel University applied six "authorship attribution models"--essentially the comparison of stylistic attributes--in an attempt to solve the mystery. All six models turned up one writer, and one only, as consistently aligned with Ferrante: Domenico Starnone, Raja's husband. Born in Naples in 1943, he grew up in the city in the periods so intensely evoked in Ferrante's fiction. Raja was also born in Naples, but in 1953, and left at the age of three. Other corpus linguistics studies (for example by the distinguished linguist Michele Cortelazzo at Padua University) have produced the same result.

    That there were similarities between Ferrante's fiction and Starnone's was already widely acknowledged....<<

    I haven't read any Elena Ferrante, but I wonder if some admirers of the novels will be upset by this suggestion. Part of me thinks such a discovery should not make any difference to a reading of the novels, but another part of me thinks that just as our evaluation of a supposedly baroque musical piece might change if we discovered it had been composed in the 20th century, so readers might be similarly entitled to change their evaluation of the Neapolitan novels on learning of the author's identity. I'm not sure though...

    Sorry, by the way, if this is all old news to Elena Ferrante readers.

  6. Also finished book 2 of Elena Ferrante's Neopolitan novels. This series is completely engaging and heartbreaking. I love the insight into 1960s Italian society and the exploration of female friendship.

  7. Hoy no hice anotaciones en el pizarrón, pero les cuento: en mi grupo de #novela leímos el comienzo del #Quijote y vimos cómo abre su mundo para sus #lectores en el siglo XVII. También hablamos de lo que comparten una novela y quien la lee, de cómo (y cuándo, y cuánto) adicionar detalles inventados y nuevos, y de #FrankHerbert, #DenisVilleneuve, #ElenaFerrante y #MargaretAtwood. Ahí vamos. 🌟

  9. Areenalle on tänään tullut uusi italialaissarja #LaStoria.

    Perustuu #ElsaMorante n romaaniin, ja sijoittuu 1930-1940 -lukujen Roomaan.

    Katson kuitenkin ns. #kielikylpy hengessä, mutta mietin, että pystyykö #ElenaFerrante n upean #LoistavaYstäväni filmatisoinnin jälkeen katsomaan noita aikoja kuvaavaa italialaisdraamaa ns. puhtaalta pöydältä vai vertaantuuko kaikki päässä siihen?

  11. I’m really enjoying rereading this for bookclub.

    “But a copper pot, even if you drop it, doesn't break and doesn't become misshapen like that.
    ‘It's this sort of thing,’ Lila concluded, ‘that
    frightens me. More than Marcello, more than anyone. And I feel that I have to find a solution…”

  13. Really enjoying #mybrilliantfriend by #ElenaFerrante It’s hard to even say what’s good about it, it’s so good. It’s a small, beautiful little world. So much happens & nothing much at all. I’m probably not selling this. It’s set in the 50s but reminds me a lot of being a kid in the 80s. It feels like a very benevolent book, a book that would have your back, would help you bury the body without too many questions. #bookstadon #bookstodon #books

  14. [how others read and understand what we write is a source of immense & relentless wonder to me - who is the author; what did they intend; is the author dead; does it matter; how was their text received; what chronotopies, values & material conditions interveneved between the writing and the reading of a text; why can fiction get away with anonymity (cf #ElenaFerrante)]

    aka, why the whole #gpt thing is keeping my brain on its toes #AcWri

  16. @Aaron "A Brilliant Friend" by #ElenaFerrante. When I read "The Lost Daughter " I found the author's writing very enchanting, so I decided to start the book series that is probably Ferrante's most well known one
