Vol.30,No.1(2009)

Abstract
The following contribution should demonstrate the role of space in Sessanta racconti by Dino Buzzati. The short introduction presents the author and his possible liaison with the fantastic stream of Italian literature of 20th century. The following part analyzes Buzzati's cathegory of space in general, with the focus on the contrast between open and close spaces. Next part will concentrate on the connection between the gradual deterioration and destruction of the countryside and the increase of the fantastic tendencies in the narration progress. In the last paragraph we will focus on Buzzati's esclusive topos, that of mountains, and its connection with the author's childhood and the temporal duality, in the dependence of Jung's theory of preconscious and postconscious nature of human being. The conclusion will summarize all above and we will try to characterize the connection between space and fantastic in the works of Dino Buzzati.
