LINES OF RESEARCH
Giuseppe Alonzo's studies have attended lines of research of a composite nature, some of them traditional in character, with philological, historical-documentary and critical edition interventions, others interdisciplinary.
The latter have focused on the relationship between Italian literature of various centuries and philosophical thought, the figurative and plastic arts such as portraiture or monetary iconography, certain foreign cultural movements or phenomena, particularly Portuguese, enology and gastronomy.
Such studies have aimed to interrogate the texts of Italian literature from various perspectives, with a focus on the seventeenth century, but reserving forays into the fourteenth century, the sixteenth century and the period between the late eighteenth century and the early twentieth century.
On the seventeenth century, in particular, attention has been turned in the direction, in addition to Giovan Battista Marino and satire, of the Lombard context, with the aim of tracing the coordinates of the influence of Baroque literature in the regional and especially Milanese area, within the historical, demographic and political-institutional context of the time.
