La ricezione di Ivo Andrić in Italia (1991-2021). Bilanci e prospettive

This paper offers a survey of the reception of Ivo Andrić in Italy from 1991 to 2021. The most widely translated South Slavic author, Andrić is unique in having not only major but also minor works translated into Italian. In some cases, various translations of the same text have been carried out, and numerous translators have worked with a wide range of publishers, from small to large publishing houses. In addition to novels, short stories represent the part of Andrić’s oeuvre that translators have cultivated more intensely over the last thirty years. Formal studies of the author’s work have increased since the early 1990s, but only one monograph has been published (P. Lazarević Di Giacomo, I romanzi cronache di Ivo Andrić).
