Immaginario, migrazione e politica nella scrittura di Amara Lakhous: Kayfa tarda‘u min al-dhi’ba duna an ta‘addaka e la sua autotraduzione Conflitto di civiltà per un ascensore a Piazza Vittorio
Abstract
This article examines both the Arabic and the Italian versions of Clash of civilizations over an elevator in Piazza Vittorio with reference to the different horizons of expectation of the readers of the two texts. This approach allows to understand a distinctive feature of Lakhous’ work that has been neglected by previous studies: the way the novel interacts with two different social imaginaries and operates to transform them.
