Repetition in “Un amore” of Dino Buzzati

Abstract

My thesis discusses a very important, simple but powerful expression tool, it is repetition, used by Dino Buzzati in his novel Un Amore. It is a completely extravagant work, compared to the usual production of the writer. Through the technique of the inner monologue, the conflicts of the mature man attracted by youth are analyzed, but also those of the educated bourgeois taken by what is popular.<br />At First, in the introduction i briefly present the theme of the novel and the the writer's style. Then i study two main types of repetition: the repetition “in contact” and the repetition “at a distance”; besides long repetitions or echoes as Buzzati calls them.<br />In addition, i treat the repetitions in the form of progression which in turn are distinguished in semantic progression that depends on the choice of terms, anaphoric, synonymic, narrative and finally that in the form of adjectival series. The examples cited in the thesis explain the flexibility and simplicity of repetition, precisely for which Buzzati prefers this expression tool.
