Il libro attraversa la letteratura italiana, dal Rinascimento alla contemporaneità, indagando modi, tempi e luoghi d’intersezione di scienza medica e letteratura. Dalle scene ai versi, dalla trattatistica alla narrativa, la letteratura italiana ha raccontato nel corso del tempo la malattia, servendosi della scienza medica, come di un’arte sorella. La critica letteraria ha solo di recente cominciato a lambire i nuovi orizzonti di ricerca che la medicina narrativa e la biopoetica hanno individuato. Questo libro vuol suggerire uno sconfinamento, configurarsi come un invito ad oltrepassare il limen, interrogando autori e testi, che hanno raccontato la malattia, per curarla, per comprenderla, per affrancarsene o solo per tenerla, in maniera apotropaica, lontana. [Abstract translated by Google Translate: This is the abstract in English… This book crosses Italian literature, from the Renaissance to the contemporary, investigating ways, times and places of intersection of medical science and literature. From scenes to verses, from treatises to fiction, Italian literature has narrated the disease over time, using medical science as a sister art. Literary criticism has only recently begun to touch the new horizons of research that narrative medicine and biopoetics have identified. This book wants to suggest a trespassing, configure itself as an invitation to go beyond the "limen," questioning authors and texts which have described the disease to cure it, to understand it, to free itself from it or just to keep it, apotropaically, far away.]
