Forme del passato nel presente. Victoria e Europe di D. Greig fra memoria culturale e ricezione teatrale
Forms of the Past in the Present. Victoria and Europe by D. Greig Between Cultural Memory and Theatrical Reception

Summary/Abstract: The articulation of time-space dimensions is a theme both for theorists of various disciplines and for those who deal with the problems of the exegesis of texts. The globalization process makes us perceive a hybrid present and permeable spaces, both with cultural consequences in relation to the process of attribution of meaning. This is the very broad outline in which I read the texts of D. Greig presented here, texts that, in the crisis of traditional historicism, address the theme in an unusual way: the relationship between history and memory has changed the nature of historical writing, accentuating the function of cultural memory (mnemo-history), with individual and collective past inevitably as its objects.
