Although the neo-historical Italian novel belongs to a climate of disengagement and the collapse of ideologies, the declared attribution of a civil role to writing is still present in the meta-fictional reflection of most of these works. This essay explores the theme of the gap and the repression, – a particularly fruitful issue in the discourse on the relationship between history and writing and widely present in the theoretical debate on historiography – to illustrate how these novels, albeit in an often indirect manner, are aimed at a critical education of the reader, themselves serving to break the silences of history.

Abstract
Although the neo-historical Italian novel belongs to a climate of disengagement and the collapse of ideologies, the declared attribution of a civil role to writing is still present in the meta-fictional reflection of most of these works. This essay explores the theme of the gap and the repression, – a particularly fruitful issue in the discourse on the relationship between history and writing and widely present in the theoretical debate on historiography – to illustrate how these novels, albeit in an often indirect manner, are aimed at a critical education of the reader, themselves serving to break the silences of history.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
