ARTICLE (Full Text - PDF)

ABSTRACT:
In this particular article, a parallel reading of the heroes in Pirandello and Scaribas is done and then the interest is focused on the presentation of the “paradox” in their writing. Pirandello and Scaribas use “paradox”, the contradiction in common sense, as a vehicle to engage and activate those who read their works not only in a simple reading of their literature but also in realizing a psychoanalytic inner journey.

KEY WORDS: Pirandello, Scaribas, Sicily, Chalkida, paradox, psychoanalysis.
