Titolo Il canto del violino solo: Pasolini e la Ciaccona di Bach Periodico Intersezioni Anno: 2024 - Fascicolo: 1 - Pagina iniziale: 51 - Pagina finale: 80
This is the first comparative study of Pasolini’s references to Bach’s Chaconne for solo violin (BWV 1004). Starting from a linguistic reading of his youthful Studies on Bach’s Style (1944-45), this essay puts forward the hypothesis that the Chaconne provides a model of writing that Pasolini develops with his semiological theory and explores through different expressive means. On a thematic level, the writer’s solitude emerges with a new compositional and critical, dialogical and choral sense.
