John Keats and Rainer Maria Rilke, felt compelled at their encounters with ancient Greek sculpture in the museum to reflect upon their vocation in an age disrupted by political upheaval and rampant commercialization respectively. Keats’s sonnet, “On Seeing the Elgin Marbles” (1817), registers a n intimation of his latent grandeur in the form of a “sick eagle,” confronting “a shadow of a magnitude.” To overcome this experience, Keats The mark of this slowness and dissatisfaction, which are proof of the artist’s sincerity and also of the rhythm that animates the universe, the non finito thus corresponds to what is most profound, most authentic in Rodin, his quest for a form taken to extremes in terms of expression and that is yet open to whatever influences the chance happenings of life may have on it.

Therefore, it is divided into two fundamental moments, two argumentative channels that, without a totalizing intention, point out the general perspective of a changing scenario. On the one hand, the literature of the 20th century is presented from the image of a supposed negativity or radical intransitivity, capable of “undoing the work” in its “aesthetics of suppression”. On the other hand, from an introductory debate around some of the places of transitivity envisioned for literature at the beginning of the 21st century, the literary is now conceived as an ethical-reparative field, responsible, among others, for “giving visibility”, “remembering”, “repairing damage”, 1 Departamento de Letras, Universidade do Extremo Sul Catarinense: <andrecechinel@ gmail.com>.","PeriodicalId":44033,"journal":{"name":"CLCWEB-Comparative Literature and Culture","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84950475","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Crehan’s recent Gramscian studies the categories of senso comune and buon senso become crucial. Crehan utilizes categories such as “culture” and senso comune to explain both the Tea Party experience and Donald Trump’s election. Fusaro, on the contrary, is an Italian public intellectual who declares himself a sovereignist and who often includes, among the theoretical references of Italian contemporary sovereignism, the author of Quaderni del carcere. In the book Antonio Gramsci: la passione di essere nel mondo, Fusaro aims to demonstrate how Gramsci’s reflections arise within the theoretical horizon of philosophical idealism, both as regards his views on politics and the economy and his conception of culture: in Fusaro’s opinion, Gramsci is still relevant today because he is anti-capitalist and because he is not hostile, idealistically, to the family and to the establishment of a popular and national state. However, a limitation of Antonio Gramsci: la passione di essere nel mondo is the reductiveness of Gramsci’s conception of culture.
