By considering three works of Primo Levi, Elsa Morante, and Fulvio Tomizza, this analysis aims to investigate some examples of composite and paradoxical identities. Regarding the matter in question, I will examine cases in which the elements shaping the subjects, especially language, will be discordant with the proposed identity. In Primo Levi’s La tregua, the author seeks to account his Jewish belonging, despite his lack of knowledge of Yiddish. Morante investigates the troubled linguistic identity of Aracoeli’s protagonist, while the extreme hybridism of Stefano in Tomizza’s L’albero dei sogni allows remarkable forms of estrangement to surface. Thanks to the support of identity theorists such as Baumeister and Chambers, and of theorists of the monolingual/plurilingual condition such as Fishman and Lepschy, I will employ a more fluid notion of identity in order to contemplate different variables and solutions, which may lead to contradictions. These three authors can, therefore, be considered forerunners of recent literary studies on migration, which deal with the impellent necessity to remove the limits imposed by strict definitions of identity.

Prendendo in considerazione tre opere di Primo Levi, Elsa Morante e Fulvio Tomizza, quest’analisi si propone di indagare alcuni esempi di identità composite e paradossali. Nella fattispecie verranno esaminati casi in cui le componenti formanti l’identità del soggetto, tra cui in primis la lingua, risulteranno discordanti rispetto all’identità dichiarata. Ne La tregua di Primo Levi, l’autore cercherà di render conto della sua appartenenza ebraica, nonostante la mancata conoscenza dell’yiddish; la Morante si addentrerà nella travagliata identità linguistica del protagonista di Aracoeli, mentre l’ibridismo esasperato di Stefano de L’albero dei sogni tomizziano farà emergere marcate forme di straniamento. Grazie al supporto di alcuni teorici del tema dell’identità, tra cui Baumeister e Chambers e del monolinguismo/plurilinguismo, quali Fishman e Lepschy, sarà possibile far emergere un concetto di identità più fluido, in grado di contemplare molteplici variabili e soluzioni, non esenti talvolta da contraddizioni. I tre autori possono quindi considerarsi degni anticipatori dei recenti studi letterari sulla migrazione, che hanno sempre più a che fare con l’impellente necessità di rimuovere i limiti imposti da definizioni identitarie rigide.

Times when the Nazi concentration camps appeared is the period when the importance of humanistic knowledge weakened. The living conditions in concentration camps were so horrible that the primary goal of the prisoners was just to survive in the Nazi created “world”, which can be described as non-human, and therefore non-humanistic. Hence there is a question whether humanistic upbringing is valuable, if it is not useful in an extreme situation, when humanity of a human is at stake? If not: why does it not allow man to remain human? This question occupied the minds of the camp prisoners who discussed the status of humanistic upbringing. The author of the article tries to answer this question using the recollections of Primo Levi, Jean Amery and Victor Frankl.

The Greek Testament of Levi describes the origin of the priesthood from Levi. In the text, he gives advice to his sons and teaches how they are to serve in the temple. He encourages priests to acquire knowledge because thanks to wisdom they will have respect in the community. In the last instruction before his death he warns them against sins. Sin, according to Levi, will destroy the temple. In the Testament, Levi announces the “new priest” who will renew cult. The text about the “new priest” Christians identified with Jesus Christ, and the words of Levi were to be an instruction for the priests of the Church.
