Some of the theoretical
hypotheses underpinning my book on Italo Svevo, Sapere di Scrivere. Svevo e gli ordigni di La
coscienza di Zeno (Carrubo, 2015), namely the relation between life and writing,
and the search for unity through the narration of internal conflicts and
contradictions, also underscore this essay. What does writing about oneself
mean? Was it perhaps Kakfa right when he argued that autobiography is like
wielding an ax, and breaking the frozen ocean of our solitude? Or is it rather
the attempt to search for the internal unity of the subject? Italo Svevo
effectively employed the confessional and autobiographical genre in most of his
writing. Confession and autobiography enabled him to elaborate the often
conflicting relation between literature and life, and between the two parallel
identities of Italo Svevo and Ettore Schmitz. The writing of oneself enacted by
Svevo looks for an order and a desire for unity, which, however, must pass by
necessity through disunity and openness.
