Abstract:

This book focuses on literary multilingualism and specifically on the
challenging condition of writing in Trieste, a key European borderland
located at the intersection between the Latin, Germanic and Slav
civilisations.

By focusing on some of the most representative modern writers
operating in the area, such as Italo Svevo, Boris Pahor, Claudio
Magris and James Joyce, this work offers a wide-ranging discussion of
multilingual practices deriving from the different language choices
made by these writers. Along with the most common manifest strategies,
such as code-switching and hybridisations, Deganutti highlights how
Triestine writers found innovative latent practices to engage with
multilingualism, such as writing in an analogical way or exploiting
internal linguistic stratifications. Moreover, she shows how they
provided answers to the several linguistic, cultural and even
political challenges they were subjected to, with the result of
redefining linguistic boundaries that clearly separate different
tongues.

This book will be of interest to graduate students, researchers and
academics interested in literary multilingualism in the fields of
sociolinguistics, borderland studies and comparative literature.
