The Grand Old Man and the Great Tradition
Essays on Tanizaki Jun’ichiro in Honor of Adriana Boscaro
Luisa Bienati and Bonaventura Ruperti, Editors
Collects nine assessments of Tanizaki’s relationship with the classical literary tradition, in honor of the contributions of one of the great modernist’s most tireless scholars
Description
Adriana Boscaro and Tanizaki Jun’ichirô: two names firmly linked in my mind and in those of many others who feel connected to Boscaro either on a personal level or through a shared devotion to the work of Tanizaki. This book is primarily conceived as an homage to both the work of the “grand old man,” in all its inexhaustible richness, and to Boscaro’s tireless contributions to the study of Tanizaki in Italy and around the world.
