Il nome fra lapsus e visioni oniriche: La rigenerazione di Italo Svevo

Résumé

The names of characters in Svevo’s latest short tales and in his interesting drama La rigenerazione are important to connect similar concepts and contexts into Svevo’s works. In many instances, indeed, the same name shows remarkably recurrent meanings. The article investigates also the topic of the dream, which allows the connection between past and present in La rigenerazione. In this drama, the act of nominating reminds us of Freud’s theory about lapsus and the psychopathology of everyday life.
