"Le mani in mezzo al cibo, tutte mani cortesi". Tre pasti solidali in Ingeborg Bachmann, Günter Grass e Friedrich Dürrenmatt

Parole chiave: Food in literature, Solidarity meals, Ingeborg Bachmann, Günter Grass, Friedrich Dürrenmatt

Abstract

The paper focuses on a particular kind of literary representations of food, namely the “solidarity meals” described by Alois Wierlacher. They are analysed in three prose works: Ingeborg Bachmann’s Der Fall Franza (1965-1966), Günter Grass’ Die Blechtrommel (1959) and Friedrich Dürrenmatt’s Die Panne (1956.) These literary representations foster the recognition of a utopian dimension of brotherhood, and at the same time they show ex negativo the society in which the characters live.
