Abstract

-

In Italy and beyond, Pier Paolo Pasolini has been presented for a long time as a thinker of contemporaneity; making less important the several divisions - in different genres or phases - that were used to introduce his work. This tendency can be detected in books like Didi-Huberman's Survivance des lucioles (Les Éditions de Minuit, 2009); or before that, in Franco Cassanos's Il pensiero meridiano (Laterza, 1996); also in more recent works, such as Effetto Italian Thought (Quodlibet, 2017), organized by E. Lisciani-Petrini and G. Strummiello, and Decostruzione o biopolitica? (Quodlibet, 2017), organized by Elettra Stimilli.
