  abstract     = {{Pasolini’s literary teachings on Volponi between « Officina » and Olivetti and the diatribe about
Corporale · This article reconstructs and examines the debate between Paolo Volponi and Pier Paolo
Pasolini around the elaboration and publication of Corporale (1965-1974), and it does so by reconsidering
Pasolini’s literary teachings (“magistero letterario”) and Adriano Olivetti’s industrial teachings (“magistero
industriale”). On the one hand, the article suggests a more restrictive and specific understanding
of the durable influence of Pasolini on Volponi’s work – by highlighting the relevance of the role
of the journal « Officina » (1955-1959), and by highlighting the importance of the two authors’ positions
in the literary field of the Fifties and the Sixties. On the other hand, the article aims at demonstrating
that Volponi purports Olivetti’s democratic model of industry, while that model had already started
proving more and more problematic (if not unachievable, unrealistic) and that Corporale is the novel in
which the crisis of Olivetti’s utopistic industrial paradigm is more explicit and relevant. Furthermore
and conclusively, the article reconsiders Pasolini’s review on Corporale in the light of an unpublished
note written by Pasolini, in which he reconsiders Corporale, proposes a brief theory of the novel, and
admits his closeness to Volponi’s point of view on the power and on the transformations of the Italian
society during the Sixties}},
