Politica editoriale e cultura del dissenso. Due esempi in casa Einaudi e Feltrinelli tra il 1964 e il 1968

The beginning of the sixties represents for Italian editors the attempt to understand the long wave of cultural dissent that express many European writers almost since the Hungarian revolution. Einaudi and Feltrinelli, following the example of Seuil with the “Tel Quel” collection, creates tho new experimental series: “La ricerca letteraria” and “Materiali”. In my contribution I will try to underline the cultural role of Einaudi and Feltrinelli and their series between ’64 and ’68: Einaudi proposes the translations of nouveau roman authors among others while Feltrinelli leads the discussion about experimentalism and neo-avantgarde. Few years that add to change Italian cultural panorama and prepared the ’68 protests.
