Thesis (Ph.D.)--Harvard University, 2004.

Anna Maria Ortese (1914--1998) was an Italian writer of many fantastic short stories and novels. This dissertation investigates the roots of her use of the fantastic, and, in particular, her connection to the short-lived literary tendency of magic realism in Italy, founded in the mid-1920s by the influential intellectual Massimo Bontempelli (1878--1960). Through an analysis of 25 previously unpublished letters, written by Ortese to Bontempelli between 1936 and 1960, the present work engages in a discussion of the close ties between the two writers. Ortese's letters are herein published in their entirety with granted permission from the Research Library of the Getty Research Institute of Los Angeles.

520 $a Anna Maria Ortese (1914--1998) was an Italian writer of many fantastic short stories and novels. This dissertation investigates the roots of her use of the fantastic, and, in particular, her connection to the short-lived literary tendency of magic realism in Italy, founded in the mid-1920s by the influential intellectual Massimo Bontempelli (1878--1960). Through an analysis of 25 previously unpublished letters, written by Ortese to Bontempelli between 1936 and 1960, the present work engages in a discussion of the close ties between the two writers. Ortese's letters are herein published in their entirety with granted permission from the Research Library of the Getty Research Institute of Los Angeles.
520 $a In Chapter One, entitled "Theorizing the Fantastic: Massimo Bontempelli and Magic Realism", the history of the term magic realism in Italy is explored. While originally used to describe German post-Expressionist painting, the term was first applied to literature by Bontempelli in his literary journal 900. This little-studied review---which was active between 1926 to 1929---was enthusiastically founded and directed by Bontempelli, but was forced to halt publication due to political pressures from the Fascist regime. Chapter One investigates the cultural and political significance of the journal, and, in particular, how Bontempelli used it as a vehicle to present his thoughts on magic realism.
520 $a Chapter Two, entitled "Beyond Magic Realism. Anna Maria Ortese's Ties with Massimo Bontempelli" discusses the collaboration and friendship between Bontempelli and Ortese as documented in the latter's letters. Much attention is paid to Bontempelli's role as a mentor during the early years of Ortese's career.
520 $a Chapter Three, "Evil in the Writings of Anna Maria Ortese", studies the nature of Ortese's novel use of the fantastic as a way for the author both to reveal and criticize the injustices of society. Through an analysis of her theoretical writings, minor works and three of her major novels (L'Iguana 1965, Il Cardillo addolorato 1993, Alonso e i visionari 1996), this chapter addresses how Ortese's very psychological use of the supernatural diverges greatly from the more objective ideas of her mentor.
