Lyrical line of the Sicilian prose writers of the 20th century. Mythical realism of Elio Vittorini and its continuation in works by Bufalino, Bonaviri and Consolo
Baroni, Sarah ; Flemrová, Alice (advisor) ; Pelán, Jiří (referee)
(in English) The aim of this thesis is to analyse thoroughly the mythical approach and lyrical aspects in the writings of Elio Vittorini and subsequently to find the continuation of these tendencies in works by Vincenzo Consolo, Giuseppe Bonaviri and Gesualdo Bufalino. At first we briefly described the approach of mythical realism in the Italian and Sicilian literature of 20th century as a literary topos. Afterwards we focused on the individual authors who were already shortly introduced in biographical portraits, then we made the analyses of chosen novels of those four writers where we focused on the mythical and symbolical motives and the lyrical tendencies of their prose. In conclusion we made a comparative according to the results of our previous analyses and we shortly evaluated the image of Sicily emerging from literary output of those chosen authors.
