| description | The thread linking Antonino Buttitta's essays that are collected into his two posthumous books, Antropologia e letteratura (2017) and Vincere il drago (2022), is his reflection on the status of anthropology and the place it occupies among other disciplines. Its relationship with literature, and with its capacity to capture and describe social phenomena, is central. But its dialogue with the so-called “hard sciences” is also important, for example in bringing to light some of the most significant peculiarities of the human species. An analogous search for an equilibrium between the more humanistic and the more scientific sides of the discipline can be found in Alberto Sobrero’s work, which is discussed in the edited collection, È ora di andare (2022). The shared dimension of intentionality and language – which particularly emerges in Sobrero’s reflections on narration and on Buttitta’s reflections on memory – allows both to read individual existence within collective historical frames that give it meaning and depth, and which can also represent a secular idea of survival. |
