In 1858, Niccolò Tommaseo addressed to the readers his Preface to the Florentine edition of Caterina Percoto’s Tales, in which he outlined a comparison between the representation of the “real” by the author and by George Sand, pseudonym of Amantine Aurore Lucile Dupin. Taking up the threads of the reading proposed by Tommaseo, the study aims to compare the relationship between reality and narrative forms in the fiction of the two writers and in the context of a neuralgic historical and literary phase: the transition from “romanticism” to “realism”.

Abstract

In 1858, Niccolò Tommaseo addressed to the readers his Preface to the Florentine edition of Caterina Percoto’s Tales, in which he outlined a comparison between the representation of the “real” by the author and by George Sand, pseudonym of Amantine Aurore Lucile Dupin. Taking up the threads of the reading proposed by Tommaseo, the study aims to compare the relationship between reality and narrative forms in the fiction of the two writers and in the context of a neuralgic historical and literary phase: the transition from “romanticism” to “realism”.
