Sulle tracce perdute dell’urogallo: un approccio ecocritico a Stagioni di Mario Rigoni Stern
On the lost traces of the grouse: an ecocritical approach to Stagioni by Mario Rigoni Stern

Summary/Abstract: Stagioni (2006) is the last work by the Italian writer Mario Rigoni Stern and it is like an autobiography that delves into the most important phases of his life and explains his relationship with history and, above all, with nature, the focal point of his literary production. In this contribution, starting from an overview of some theoretical fundamentals of ecocriticism, such as Pastoral and Wilderness, and considering the relationship between ecocriticism and literary studies, we intend to analyze Rigoni Stern’s environmentalist approach, placing Stagioni in the more complex ecological discourse that the writer built in his long literary career.
