Abstract

This obsessive presence of primeval mud, which is cardinal to both Levi and Beckett's work and which as we have seen finds its roots in the Inferno, is invariably connected to the genesis of language. As many critical studies have outlined, the mortal or contingent nature of language was an issue, or better, the issue for Beckett, since his writing of Dante…Bruno..Vico..Joyce, where his analysis of Convivio starts from some considerations on Genesis and the origin of language.
