IL SIGNORE DELLE PAROLE. LA LINGUA DEL ROMANZO IL FUOCO DI GABRIELE D’ANNUNZIO

Abstract

The following article deeply examines the linguistic and stylistic forms of the novel “Il Fuoco”. The analysis of such forms bears witness to the presence, in a language unusually rich and varied besides a style full of figures of speech, of polished and old-fashioned expressions, which characterize the high literary tone and the expressive grandeur of D’Annunzio “king of the words”.
