Many of the great writers of modern Italian fiction - Manzoni, Verga, D'Annunzio, and others - share a strong belief in the transformational power of the written word. According to Robert Dombroski, each embraces literature as an institution and convention, and each adopts the novel form as a means of affirming life in the face of troubled reality. In "Properties of Writing", Dombroski explores their work and the social, political, and historical issues that have emerged in recent Italian fiction. In each of nine critical readings, Dombroski offers an interpretation, reconsiders past assumptions, and redefines unresolved critical problems. The result is a book in English to focus on the Italian novel from the perspective of ideological criticism.
