This study reconstructs for the first time in a complete and correct way the paper editorial history of Pier Paolo Pasolini’s well-known writing on the cinema of poetry – from 1965 to 1999, when Pasolini’s essay is published in the Meridiani collection – and identifies its numerous points of interest. In particular, it focuses on the originality of Pasolini's reflection, which aims to demonstrate the existence in the cinema of a language of poetry, as opposed to a language of prose, arising from the adoption of a stylistic register that he decides to call free indirect point-of-view shot. It captures the connection between this essay and those reflections elaborated by Pasolini in other essays on realism and on cinema as the written language of reality, identifying its Bazinian ancestry and demonstrating that Pasolini may have read André Bazin translated into Italian before 1965. And it shows that the theoretical and critical formulations developed here by Pasolini contain as many reflections on himself, on his work and his choice to make cinema as the most authentic form of making poetry.

Abstract

This study reconstructs for the first time in a complete and correct way the paper editorial history of Pier Paolo Pasolini’s well-known writing on the cinema of poetry – from 1965 to 1999, when Pasolini’s essay is published in the Meridiani collection – and identifies its numerous points of interest. In particular, it focuses on the originality of Pasolini's reflection, which aims to demonstrate the existence in the cinema of a language of poetry, as opposed to a language of prose, arising from the adoption of a stylistic register that he decides to call free indirect point-of-view shot. It captures the connection between this essay and those reflections elaborated by Pasolini in other essays on realism and on cinema as the written language of reality, identifying its Bazinian ancestry and demonstrating that Pasolini may have read André Bazin translated into Italian before 1965. And it shows that the theoretical and critical formulations developed here by Pasolini contain as many reflections on himself, on his work and his choice to make cinema as the most authentic form of making poetry.
