Description
Summary:Giuseppe Barettiʼs literary journal, La Frusta letteraria (1763-65), is a poetic piece of fiction about the contemporary world of literature in the 2nd part of the eighteenth century. Baretti performs in it his criticism on contemporary literature as well as on the conventional and common processes implicit in literary scene at that time, reflecting also on his own experiences and observations as a 'modernʼ and cosmopolitan author. To stage this he uses various literary models which were traditional or 'in vogueʼ at that time in Europe. A critical analysis also reveals the journal in whole to be a closed text constructed strictly according to literary principles, which establishes it as a cohesive piece of poetic art.
