Abstract
Investigated in this study are the memories of John Arrivabene (1787-1881), published for the first time in 1860 in Turin, living author, under the title “Around an era of my life”. They tell the exile of the author, who was forced to flee Italy to escape to a second imprisonment. Because the order of the words is one of the least investigated, and focuses primarily Italian contemporary, it was decided to investigate, at the level of topological syntax, three phenomena: the inversions and tmesi of the verb, the subject's position and finally, the position of the adjective. The autobiographical prose of John Arrivabene was tied to tradition in some aspects (the anteposition of adjective), tending to modernizing practice inaugurated by Foscolo in other aspects (limited sporadic use of inversions of the verb) This paper gives an account, through examples drawn from the text, the language of the examination and the results obtained.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
