Beschreibung:
Lina Bolzoni is Professor Emerita of Italian Literature at the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa and Global Distinguished Professor at New York University. She is the author of The Gallery of Memory and The Web of Images, among other titles.
The sense of reading as an intimate act of self-discovery¿and of communion between authors and book lovers¿has a long history. Lina Bolzoni returns to Petrarch, Boccaccio, Machiavelli, Montaigne, and Tasso, exploring how Renaissance humanists began to represent reading as a private encounter and a dialogue across barriers of time and space.
