This article focuses on the passing of trauma from father to daughter, tracing the pathways of what scholars have called transgenerational trauma. In particular, I rely on Joshua Pederson's framework to locate trauma within literary texts, focusing on the dissociative moments of the father figure whose dreams, visions, and premonitions become the locus of trauma. From there, I use clinical psychology and psychiatry to identify the symptoms of trauma and analyze their continual effects on the novel's protagonist, Adua. By linking Italian colonialism to the postcolonial period, I argue that Scego frames Italian colonialism as part of a legacy, one that does not come to a full stop at the end of World War II but rather has a lasting, continual impact on Italian society and the subsequent generations of those who were subjugated under Italian colonialism.","PeriodicalId":29826,"journal":{"name":"Italica Belgradensia","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81472786","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The article argues that Kai Zen's greater adherence to popular literary genres, such as science fiction, the western and the romanzo rosa, gives priority to the outcome of the collective writing enterprise, that is, the writing itself, rather than to the collective authors. The article concludes by drawing connections between collective writing as a prelude to collective political action.","PeriodicalId":29826,"journal":{"name":"Italica Belgradensia","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89037244","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
