Abstract

The Essay reconstructs the idea of “Literature” since the Origins in Clas sical Culture up to nowadays. Literature as a Word, from Quintiliano to Vir ginia Woolf, and as a .ing, that is to say an historical Institution made of Actors (Writer, World, Work, Reader) and tools (Genre, Text, Style, Poetics, Criticism…), all changing in space and time. As a result Literature appears to us, today, more and more involved in an anthropological web, with Rhetoric, Visual Culture, the System of Arts, the area of symbolical functions of humanity.
