Although the \u003cem\u003eneoavanguardia\u003c\/em\u003e movement has been primarily defined and examined in a literary context, it is broadly discussed in this collection as also affecting other artistic forms such as the visual arts, music, and architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn examining this often controversial movement, \u003cem\u003eNeoavanguardia\u003c\/em\u003e's contributors include topics such as critical-theoretical debates, the crisis of literature as defined within the movement, and issues of gender in 1960s Italian art and literature. This important collection interrogates the arts as creative codes, their ability to question reality, and their capacity to survive. In so doing, it paves the way for future interdisciplinary investigations of this complex cultural formation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paolo Chirumbolo,Mario Moroni,Luca Somigli\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 080209998X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780802099983\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Toronto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/18\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 5.90w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2011","brand":"Paolo Chirumbolo","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":49096735326463,"sku":"9780802099983","price":96.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/neoavanguardia-paolo-chirumbolo-9780802099983","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
