THE WRITING OF ANNA MARIA ORTESE, EXEMPLIFIED IN ONE STORY

THE WRITING OF ANNA MARIA ORTESE, EXEMPLIFIED IN ONE STORY

Order Description

In “The Submerged Continent” Ortese writes that “reason is only the emergent part … of the human intellect,” which leads her to want to “listen to the sad and yet gentle voice of dreams … dreams which come from outside, from the part of ourselves we have lost … [etc.]” (pp. 20-21).

These pages are in some ways a statement of poetics on Ortese’s part – an explanation of how and why she writes as she does.  Ponder these pages and use them to understand the following story:  “Winter Voyage.”  Comment closely on Ortese’s style of writing in this story and the intellectual content it brings to life.
