Conrad's Presence in Eduardo Berti's Un Padre Extranjero.
- Authors
Martinière, Nathalie
- Abstract
The article explores Eduardo Berti's novel "Un Padre Extranjero" and its examination of Joseph Conrad's influence on the protagonist's life. Berti uses Conrad's works as a source of inspiration and identification, blurring the lines between reality and fiction. The novel delves into the theoretical implications of appropriation and the role of the reader in shaping the narrative. Berti's appropriation of Conrad's works demonstrates the lasting influence of Conrad and his ability to inspire contemporary authors. The novel explores themes of personal identity, exile, and the power of fiction.
